From humble beginnings to sold-out world tours, Sheryl Crow's life has been nothing short of extraordinary. Whether battling sexism in the music industry, mourning ill-fated romances, or surviving a well-publicized battle with breast cancer, Crow has always found a way to turn even her darkest experiences into captivating, timeless work.

Sheryl is brisk but pretty comprehensive.
Variety by Owen Gleiberman
"Sheryl" tells these anecdotes, and others, in a swift and captivating fashion, with the director, Amy Scott, in engaging command.
Los Angeles Times by Noel Murray
It’s a fascinating story, mostly told by Crow herself, who is disarmingly honest about the capriciousness and cruelty of the music business — and about how the best way to survive for decades is to learn how to connect with people.
The New York Times by Glenn Kenny
Crow herself is a more than interesting subject. She’s a musician whose Rock-with-a-capital-R cred — her guitar playing is ace, her voice is soulful and her ear for a hook is unimpeachable — is sometimes overlooked in favor of her pop appeal. And her story has a lot of twists.
The Hollywood Reporter by Lovia Gyarkye
When it comes to more rigorous analysis — a bit of pushback, a touch of tension or cultural context — the documentary leaves something to be desired.
