Reviews

“A digitally restored, impeccably edited, audaciously alive 2-hour-and-22-minute Scorsese feast of a 1970s verité sprawl.”
– Owen Glieberman, Variety

Scorsese is the Bob Dylan of cinema – poetic, truthful, idiosyncratic – and Rolling Thunder is an important document of a major artist – by a major artist.”
– Ian Freer, Empire

“The film is a passionate and relentless effort to connect the performances of music to the lives and activities with which they coincided.”
– Richard Brody, The New Yorker
