Shine a Light Good Reviews
- Rolling Stone (3.5/4): Shine a Light Review
- " This you-are-there spellbinder is a master director shining his light on the best rock band on the planet."
- The New York Times: Shine a Light Review
- "The visual rhythms and unobtrusive editing reflect the contradictory status of the Stones as a majestic rock institution and a gang of down-and-dirty bad boys thumbing their noses at propriety while scooping up all the girls."
- EW.com (B+): Shine a Light Review
- "Shine a Light is a blistering parade of hot rocks, but it's never quite startling, like Stop Making Sense, or transcendent, like Scorsese's The Last Waltz. What it captures is a band that has figured out the best way to endure — by becoming eternal."
- Chicago Tribune (3.5/4): Shine a Light Review
- "The images in Shine a Light are pretty beautiful, and the collaborators do especially well bringing out the visual music of the duets."
- The Austin Chronicle (4/5): Shine a Light Review
- "Martin Scorsese's Shine a Light will prompt myriad reactions — shock, awe, glee — but dismissal will be in the minority."
- Newsweek: Fun With Mick & Keith
- "Scorsese and his editor, David Tedeschi, spin this prize footage into a kick-ass two-hour celebration of rock-and-roll longevity."
- The New York Observer: It's Only a Rock 'n' Roll Documentary (But I Like It!)
- "Shine a Light makes me feel as if I had never really seen the Stones before in their 45-year career, including their extensive screen exposure."
- E!Online (B-): Shine a Light Review
- "You want to see something impressive? Watch these so-called geezers light up the stage for two hours. They don't even need CGI to pull it off."
Shine a Light Neutral Reviews
- Village Voice: Shine a Light: Some Country for Old Men
- "One would hope that, after The Last Waltz and No Direction Home, Scorsese might venture beyond making a glossy episode of Ripley's Believe It or Not. Nope, and we're not supposed to question it: Like the Stones, Marty's earned the right to coast, especially in his senior years."
- The Arizona Republic (3/5): Shine a Light Review
- "Although the film is expertly made...it offers almost nothing new for fans of the Stones, or of Scorsese."
Shine a Light Bad Reviews
- Cinematical: SXSW Review: Shine a Light
- "if Scorsese's name were not on the film, I would have zero expectations and been pleasantly surprised to see that the Rolling Stones are still working hard in concert. But with Scorsese's name attached, I wanted more."
