While Demme's latest doc might not fully express the sublime arc of Young's career, it's another worthy contribution to the artist's lifelong body of work.

As the second of three Neil Young performance docs, this concert film shows his musical and spiritual soul. Neil sings his heart out, again and again, providing glimpses into his less public persona while respecting the immediacy of his creations.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

New York Daily News by Elizabeth Weitzman
If he has overlooked your favorites, have faith: There’s plenty left in the trunk for that promised encore.
Demme’s excitement for Young and his music is evident throughout, and the songs fit comfortably in the unvarnished setting.
This is Young in his playroom, grabbing his toys at random while indulging his every antimelodic whim, and Demme’s off-the-cuff approach makes for the perfect aesthetic complement.
San Francisco Chronicle by Peter Hartlaub
Captures an artist who has decided not to burn out, but to fade away with dignity.
The movie’s not all glorious noise.
