Movie Reviews

TV Guide Magazine - 9/10 by Ken FoxFilmmaker AJ Schnack's hauntingly beautiful film is a bold and successful attempt to recover the human being who disappeared under the heavy mantle of "face and voice of a lost generation," and whose life has been increasingly overshadowed by his sensational early death in 1994.
Film Threat - 9/10 by Mark BellEveryone involved with the film brings their top talents to the fore, and the result is a touching, heartbreaking and an ultimately honest personal experience.
ComingSoon.net - 9/10 by Edward DouglasIf you've ever been a fan of Cobain's music and want to learn what made him tick, this film is an amazing experience that's not to be missed.
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Robin CliffordThe unique style of the film makes it a music and art house fan's must and, if you are a fan of Kurt Cobain, yours too.
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) - 9/10 by John WirtShaped from Cobain's own words, the film tells his story with care, in inventive style and without phony reverence or pretentious pronouncements.
Salon - 8/10 by Andrew O'HehirNo single film or book can dispel the cloud of enigma surrounding Kurt Cobain, but simply sitting in the dark and hearing him talk to you for 90 minutes, while the dreary gray-green beauty of his home state moves through your eyeballs and into your brain, goes a pretty long way.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Camille DoderoAbout a Son is essentially a dead rock star talking about his life for an hour and a half, and—here, jacket-blurbers!—it's deeply moving.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Noel MurrayAbout A Son may not let in anybody who doesn't already have one foot in Nirvana's doorway, but those people are invited in fully, to experience the contradictions and preoccupations of a man whose music defined his era.
New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoBe advised that this is no ordinary music doc. There are no talking heads and no performance footage of Nirvana. In fact, there's no Nirvana music at all. Instead, Schnack gives us other artists' music that had an effect on the troubled rocker.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Steven ReaIt's a study in human behavior, describing how a self-confessed "emotional wreck," through accident and ambition, talent and temperament, became a star.
