63 Up Ratings & Reviews
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
[T]he real brilliance of "63 Up" and its predecessors isn't the light these movies shine on Tony, Jackie, John, Neil and the rest, but the mirror they hold up in front of us.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
At first glance, 21 Up played as somewhat of a novelty. That was over forty years ago. Today, it stands as one of cinema's greatest achievements, a use of the medium that's at once blatantly logical and profoundly affecting.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
There is a touching universality to these life stories, which at this point have a lulling near-sameness...
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
A melancholy reminder that nothing lasts forever.
Detroit News
Tom Long
This film and its predecessors are a mirror to all.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
So beautiful and bittersweet.
Slant Magazine
Budd Wilkins
Throughout, the remaining participants take stock of private and career successes as well as perceived failures.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The tone has become melancholy and wise.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
Kim Horton skillfully weaves together clips from past films - the participants' lives inside a fishbowl literally flashing before our eyes - and both Apted's narration and his gently needling, off-camera interrogations give you all the context you need.
Film Comment Magazine
Jonathan Romney
Because of this sense of an approaching end-in a world which, in any case, is tending to see the future in apocalyptic terms-63 Up may be the most revealing episode yet.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Claudia Puig
Heartwarming... It's quite poignant.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Peter Rainer
It's very touching... There's a lot to love in this movie.
NPR
Ella Taylor
What's striking is not just the sturdy durability of family and community, but the fundamental decency of just about every participant in this long cultural experiment.
TheWrap
Robert Abele
A perfectly satisfying summing-up of what's proven to be the surest motive for any of its participants to keep filling us in on their personal lives - they did it because time, love, and just enough fortune allowed it.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
There's great pleasure in revisiting this series, seeing who turned out just fine and sometimes better than you might have expected or hoped.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Now back to look at its diverse group of Brits at age 63, the project is settling into a grandfatherly comfort.
Variety
Chris Willman
If this is the final chapter, as Apted suggests it could be, it's a worthy cap to one of the boldest experiments in world cinema.
Willamette Week
Chance Solem-Pfeifer
With 63 Up, the quiet wonder of simply executing such a project reigns -- the potentially mundane resonates profoundly when watching a human life arc or veer before your eyes.
Orlando Weekly
Cameron Meier
There can never be an unimportant chapter in the lives of real human beings. For that reason, the new 63 Up demands watching just as much as any of the previous eight.
Metro Times (Detroit, MI)
George Elkind
Though no one perspective is universal, 63 Up's remains admirably considered, sweeping, and reflective, which is all just as it should be. It's less an elegy than an ode to life.
