Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 9/10 by Peter StackThis is an intimate, lyrical yet incendiary film, and it will please fans of both Young and Jarmusch, a filmmaker drawn to the intersection of American popular culture and a profound sense of loneliness.
Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Marc SavlovIt cuts right to the savage heart of it all, thrusting the music center stage and leaving the rumors and anecdotes (most of them, anyway) to the biographers.
Empire - 8/10 by William ThomasIt's a million miles from MTV chic; instead a timeless record of a timeless band, now fifty-somethings uniting an everyman/woman/child audience. Feel the power.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by Peter HenneToo often comes across as so much fiddling with graphics and visual formats.
Sacramento Bee - 8/10 by Joe BaltakeMuch like the subject himself, Jarmusch's film is decidedly not smooth and mellow, but it has the kick of a mule.
Jam! Movies - 8/10 by Bruce KirklandIf you love the music, you'll adore the film. It rocks!
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Steven ReaIf anything, the film drags a bit because the tour that Jarmusch chose to film, the 1996 effort, was following a Crazy Horse album that was, for them anyway, sub-par. But the interviews with the band members and the behind-the-scenes footage - as well as the vintage material - make for an entertaining and illuminating experience.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Jim SullivanJim Jarmusch's underwhelming documentary on the veteran rock group Neil Young and Crazy Horse. Of course the music is fine; a robotic camera could capture that. But Jarmusch gets nothing out of his interview except the band members and manager repeatedly telling us how long and how well the group works together.
E! Online - 8/10 by E! StaffFans will freak and the curious will be rewarded by indie film legend Jarmusch's doc of Neil Young and Crazy Horse.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by John AndersonFans of Neil Young and Crazy Horse will doubtless revel in these lengthy concert scenes, and although occasionally the band's songs wander off into what appear to be impromptu jam sessions, Year of the Horse is never boring.
