Movie Reviews

Salon.com - 10/10 by Andrew O'HehirFor the most part, 20,000 Days on Earth – the approximate amount of time Cave has been alive on this planet – is an imagistic and impressionistic work, a Nick Cave-esque tone poem driven by moments of visual and thematic juxtaposition you either have to reject or accept.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by David LewisIt’s right up there with the best rock documentaries. That is, if you can call it a documentary.
Time Out - 10/10 by Dave CalhounThe film conceals as much as it reveals, and its beauty is that it pretends to do nothing else. It embraces a mystery and protects it, and it’s thrilling to behold.
Village Voice - 10/10 by Stephanie Zacharek20,000 Days on Earth is meticulously crafted but nonetheless feels casual and heartfelt. It's revelatory, and wonderful, to watch Cave walking (or driving) around, being a real person — if the movie is somewhat staged, it's never stagey.
RogerEbert.com - 9/10 by Simon AbramsCave's soulful performance, shot in real-time and in extreme close-up, is that much more impressive once you realize he's playing a song for Forsyth and Pollard before he's performed it in front of a live audience.
Portland Oregonian - 9/10 by Jeff BakerTalented, prolific, familiar with film, etc. Cave is a natural to push documentaries in a new direction, and 20,000 Days on Earth does it.
At the Movies (Australia) - 9/10 by Margaret PomeranzA grand tour of music, memory and transformation is contained in 20,000 Days on Earth.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranThis examination of the whys and wherefores of indie rock star Nick Cave is an unusual and nonformulaic cinematic enterprise and an adventurous film by any standard.
MLive.com - 9/10 by John SerbaAvoids being an indulgent profile of a tortured artist, and Cave appears confident but egoless.
Flick Filosopher - 9/10 by MaryAnn JohansonAn unclassifably weird hybrid of documentary, fiction, and stream-of-consciousness meditation on the creative life, according to Renaissance man Nick Cave.
