An uncommonly tender and observant documentary on the phenomenon that is "A Chorus Line."
By Stephen Cole FULL REVIEW

A movie as layered and enthralling as its subject.
By Owen Gleiberman FULL REVIEW

The premise of Every Little Step is no less inspired for seeming so simple and obvious, and it pays tribute to the durability and continued relevance of “A Chorus Line,” which first opened in New York in 1975, before many of the performers in the movie were born.
By A.O. Scott FULL REVIEW

An unexpectedly charming little film.

In Every Little Step, the performers bleed, sweat, cry theater - without having to tell us.
By Wesley Morris FULL REVIEW

Filmmakers nicely mix the historical and the tributary, honoring both Bennett's cultural landmark and the dancers who dream of joining its ranks.

Every Little Step shows only this: It hurts to flunk an audition, and it's nice to get hired. Everything it has to say about Broadway was said better in Bob Fosse's movie "All That Jazz" -- in its opening five minutes.
