One of the best concert films ever made."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider A "This joins the ranks of really special concert films. Whether you're a fan of Neil Young or not, don't miss 'Heart of Gold.'"   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 4/5 "This impressive documentary is Neil Young's trip down memory lane in an enchanting concert in Nashville."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 9/10 "A potent brew of humanity, empathy, and dignity."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 4/4 "Demme understands this genre intimately; he recognizes that the concert film requires more than just haphazardly pointing the camera at the musicians."   Slant Magazine   Keith Uhlich A- "There's a poignancy hearing Young's refrain, 'and I'm gettin' old,' almost a quarter of a century later and a bit of awe that the voice sounds so much the same."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford "Young's presence, his heartfelt delivery, and the audience's fore-knowledge of his brain aneurysm add enough weight to make the film a surprisingly emotional experience"   Not Coming to a Theater Near You   Leo Goldsmith A "Vividly captures Young's greatness by simply letting him do his thing."   Lessons of Darkness   Nick Schager 4/5 "Regardless of what you call it, Heart of Gold is a revelation and one of 2006's best movies."   Filmcritic.com   Pete Croatto 5/5 "...A touching and powerful film that deserves to be on the shortlist, along with “Gimme Shelter,” “The Last Waltz” and Demme’s own “Stop Making Sense” as one of the all-time great concert movies."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 5/5 "Pure concert gold, via Jonathan Demme."   EDGE Boston   Phil Hall B+ "As pure of a musical concert film as I've ever seen."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 6/10 "Who is the star here, Neil Young or Hank William's guitar?"   Monsters and Critics   Ron Wilkinson "A love letter to the consistency, and the familiarity, of that voice."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 3/4 "Both poignant and stirring, Neil Young: Heart of Gold is a must-see for all fans of Young, the alt-country pioneer whose genre-spanning career has encompassed everything from folk to hard rock to electronica."   Reel.com   Timothy Knight 3.5/4 "What I'm saying is that you don't have to already be a fan."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw  (1 - 17) of 17 OFCS Rating: 94% Fresh Page   1
