| Paste MagazineJonah FlickerJeff Broadway's excellent new documentary, Our Vinyl Weighs A Ton, skillfully and artfully tells the Stone Throw story as it reaches some great heights and sinks to some deep lows. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkOur Vinyl Weighs a Ton left me wanting a little more substance and perhaps a little less fan service. |
| The DissolveNathan RabinThe filmmakers behind Our Vinyl Weighs A Ton benefit and suffer from an excess of fascinating subject material. |
| Village VoiceErnest HardyThe lack of a critical framework means that some of the most intriguing notions the interviewees put forth are never explored. |
| ScotsmanSiobhan SynnotThis is aimed at the faithful rather than casual music fans, but the evangelical fervour shines through. |
| National PostChris KnightIt would be nicer to hear more about the business side of things, but the passion shown by the participants is infectious. |
| User ReviewGiovanni MStones Throw: MadLib, J Dilla, MF Doom, Aloe Blacc, Peanut Butter Wolf...if you know these names, this documentary is a must-see! |

| User ReviewPhillip OSome great moments (especially the segment on Charizma) but ultimately a little too hip for its own good. Not necessarily making that argument about the label--not necessarily. |
