Leave your thoughts about May It Last: A Portrait of the Avett Brothers.
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeAn excellent blend of musical behind-the-scenes, open-hearted interviews, and performance. |
| Consequence of SoundMichael RoffmanMay It Last isn’t just a portrait of a band, it’s a scrapbook of a family, one that’s thorough, funny, and full of larger-than-life stories that will tickle the funny bone as often as they bruise the heart. |
| The PlaylistKristy PuchkoMay It Last plays more like a puff piece than a concert doc, never digging to discover the hard sacrifice to this hectic touring schedule, the dirt beneath the fingernails of such work. |
| DeciderBenjamin H. SmithThough it relies on all the typical clichés, in the end it convincingly portrays the band as real people, who care about each other and draw strength from the bonds of friendship and family. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsErik PedersenApatow and Bonfiglio do a fine job creating a portrait that should satisfy fans and serve as an inviting introduction to those who don't know the Avett's classic American music. |
| Reason OnlineKurt LoderWe hear them talk about their lives and their beliefs, which are candidly examined in their music, and are the reason why it has connected with so many people. |
| NPRLinda HolmesIt's a fine film, both as a music documentary and as a family story. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzPleasing documentary on the rising country singers you feel good rooting for. |
| User ReviewPhillip SIt was the most enjoyable film I have seen in years. I love their music, and this intimate look behind the scenes makes me root for them even more. I cannot think of a better title for the film. I hope they continue blessing us with great soul-mining music. |
| User ReviewJoel PAn intimate look into Scott and Seth Avett's world and the musicians who are The Avett Brothers. This doc illustrates the depth of their art and how it is a true reflection of themselves. Well done. |
