As good as it gets in music documentaries.

Glenn Abel, Hollywood Reporter

To narrate selected details from this journey from the Iron Range to Greenwich Village to Rock Star Babylon, we get generous, attention-span respecting clips of Dylan performances and reminiscences from carefully selected talking heads.

David Yaffe, Slate
Fresh

Creates a portrait that is deep, sympathetic, perceptive and yet finally leaves Dylan shrouded in mystery, which is where he properly lives.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh

A document that will satiate Dylan fans over repeated viewings and should bring naysayers into the Dylan fold.

Phil Gallo, Variety
