Movie Reviews

Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaIt gradually transforms JANIS JOPLIN, a symbol of the American counterculture of the 60s, in Janis, a human being with anxieties, dreams and fears with which everyone can identify. [Full review in Portuguese.]
BBC.com - 10/10 by Owen GleibermanIt's only 92 minutes long, but it draws the audience into a magisterial biography; it's electric, intimate and heartbreaking.
Sunday Herald (Scotland) - 10/10 by Alison RowatPuts the music front and centre, where it belongs. A must for fans.
Thrillist - 10/10 by Thrillist Entertainment StaffUntil Janis Joplin came along. Her scratchy, whiskey-bruised voice arrested a generation and, however accidentally, carved a place for those without a Y chromosome. Little Girl Blue tracks her rock takeover to the very end, up to her tragic death.
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Laura CliffordIf "Amy" showed how fame can kill, "Janis: Little Girl Blue" explains that Janis wanted fame for the love it would bring, only to find it fleeting.
Movie Nation - 9/10 by Roger MooreA terrific film, not as moving or damning as this year’s Amy Winehouse expose, but a warm piece of cinematic scholarship.
FILMINK (Australia) - 9/10 by Travis Johnson"For fans and the curious alike, this is a must."
The New York Times - 9/10 by Stephen HoldenAlthough Ms. Berg’s enthralling film tells a story somewhat similar to “Amy,” Asif Kapadia’s recent documentary portrait of Amy Winehouse (who also died at 27), the demons that devoured Winehouse came from outside as much from within. Not so with Joplin.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Lorraine AliFrom this pastiche Joplin emerges as we've never seen her before, articulate, ambitious, torn between her wild self and her desperate need for stability.
El Pais (Spain) - 8/10 by Javier OcañaVulnerability might be the word that best describes Amy Berg's documentary about Janis Joplin. [Full review in Spanish]
