Seattle Post-Intelligencer Caroline Allen

It rolls in waves over the sedentary crowd until there's not a single soul left who's not keeping the beat.

So good it leaves you starved for more.

Deliver it does, big time.

New Times (L.A.) Gregory Weinkauf

Startlingly, this is not the trite beer commercial one might expect.

LA Weekly Chuck Wilson

Less about music than about the possibilities of the IMAX system itself.

New York Daily News Elizabeth Weitzman

All we get is mild platitudes before the shows, and one-song sets.

San Francisco Chronicle James Sullivan

Never gets near the soul of today's pop music.

TV Guide Steve Simels

Exciting and well-shot.

Village Voice Jane Dark

It all seems an advertisement -- ostensibly for a retrograde vision of the R.O.C.K.

New York Post Jonathan Foreman

More impressive than the sight of these acts on an eight-story screen is the excellent six-channel IMAX sound system.

38

Philadelphia Inquirer Tom Moon

Looks as if was cobbled together from stuff hanging around the cutting room at MTV.

20

Variety Robert Koehler

Will greatly peeve many hardcore fans.

Andy N. gave it a7:
I thought the Sheryl Crow section was awesome. The sound was great. I had a problem with the fact that most of the so called "concert" footage was obviously a small soundstage set up by the production so the artists could do one song for there film. It felt kind of fake. The music was great but the set up was sad.

Chris P. gave it a 10:
I work as an Imax host in Sudbury, Ontario and I can't stop loving it. It is an amazing, in your face backstage look on these 15 artists lives. You walk out of the theatre and you feel like you've just met them! It's awesome!
