Crossfire Hurricane Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
Hurricane is a whirling impressionistic painting of the band, beautifully conveying the energy, drive and genius of the Stones, more or less chronologically within the basic flashback structure.
New York Daily News
David Hinckley
Crossfire Hurricane, a new documentary on the first 15 years of the Rolling Stones, has passages where it lives up to the title's promise. It has other passages where it's more like a mild breeze.
Newsday
Glenn Gamboa
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards aren't afraid to keep it real. Both show some interesting insights into their success, with Jagger revealing how he portrays a different character for each of the band's singles.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
he music, at least, has remained unruly. They may be an institution, but they remain just crummy enough to keep from ever seeming slick.
New York Post
Linda Stasi
If you weren't born when the Stones broke all the rules, you will get to see why these old guys were/are the greatest of all time. If you were around then you already know, but you still won't believe it.
AV Club
Keith Phipps
Of the many sources from which someone might learn about the Rolling Stones it's better than most.
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
If Crossfire Hurricane doesn't offer much that's new, or tell a spellbinding story along the way, it still vividly captures how they became legends in the first place.
Variety
Leslie Felperin
This tribute to the Rolling Stones offers a blizzard of archive material nimbly sutured together with interviews with the Stones themselves, making this a succinct, officially sanctioned but not necessarily fawning history of the band.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
You can almost track the arc of the Stones by studying how Jagger's face evolves over the course of the movie.
TIME Magazine
James Poniewozik
It's not a revelation, but it's an intimate story of the band, with performance sequences that show how five guys-in different lineups -- came together and made an entity of pure fire and sex.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
What Mr. Morgen is after is something true to the Stones as they once existed -- as the anti-Beatles, the antiheroes of the British Invasion and an entity that bespoke hedonism, nihilism and narrow escapes.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
As the band marks its 50th anniversary, Crossfire Hurricane is a vivid reminder of just how essential, influential, and deliberate they have been.
Slate
Troy Patterson
It was my pleasure, as an intermediate-level Stones buff, to see that director Brett Morgen has put together something reeking of astringent danger.
Salon.com
Roger Catlin
While there is always another clip or song of interest, there's a lot lost in the middle.
Denver Post
Joanne Ostrow
True, it's a self-promotional exercise designed to coincide with a new greatest-hits album and featuring the band's closest participation in a documentary ever, but it's still fun to recap.
Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Dalton
Fortunately, these Mount Rushmore-faced rock icons still have sufficiently supercharged charisma and brilliant music to carry off such a transparently commercial exercise in self-promotion.
NPR's Fresh Air
John Powers
As Crossfire Hurricane reminds us, the Stones were consciously designed to occupy a less reputable place in the pop zeitgeist... They embodied psychic danger, a Dionysian force flirting with all manner of uncontrollable sensuality and violence.
Toledo Blade
Rod Lockwood
If you're expecting a comprehensive chronological cataloging of the Stones and all their exploits, prepare to be sorely disappointed.

Rich Cline
Watching the Rolling Stones' home movies while they reminisce on the soundtrack is thoroughly entertaining, although this documentary is such an inside job that it doesn't really tell us anything we don't already know.
