Pavarotti Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Clip after clip reinforces the image of Pavarotti as a robust man who loved life, loved food, loved wine, loved women - and loved himself, sometimes at the expense of others' feelings.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Although Howard doesn't go in for a lot of musicological analysis of Pavarotti's genius, which would have enriched the presentation, he compensates by giving us an ample dose of the singing.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
Ron Howard's documentary doesn't just make you miss the singer. It makes you miss, of all things, a robust music industry.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
See it, if for no other reason than to learn the significance of his characteristic white hankie.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Sarah Bryan Miller
It's an engaging film, filled with vintage snapshots, interviews with friends and former colleagues, and, most of all, that marvelously distinctive voice, with all the emotion it could convey.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Pavarotti" paints a simple picture of a complicated man, but it hits the high notes: the performances, the cheers, the adulation. Consider it a greatest hits.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
As "Pavarotti" demonstrates, while the music was mesmerizing, so was the man.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
With "Pavarotti," director Ron Howard serves up a straightforward documentary about the great tenor's life and career.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Ron Howard's documentary Pavarotti is content to bask in his glow; despite the broad array of home movies, family photos, interviews, TV outtakes, and concert recordings at its disposal, it never feels intimate with Pavarotti the person.
Arizona Republic
Kerry Lengel
Maybe "Pavarotti" would be even more compelling if Howard had delved deeper into the contradictions and controversies. But the director does achieve the first goal on entertainment: Always leave them wanting more.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
This love letter dedicated to opera's biggest rock star, the larger-than-life Luciano Pavarotti, achieves something most documentaries about the deceased rarely do: It brings a man back to glorious life.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Initial impressions, however, can be deceptive, and Howard turns out to be a natural choice to direct the excellent "Pavarotti," a warm, emotional and completely involving film about the celebrated tenor.
New York Times
Ken Jaworowski
Pavarotti's larger-than-life personality shines in almost every scene. The singer's optimism is contagious, and his schoolboy-like wonder is jubilant. There's a lot to smile at here.
TheWrap
Todd Gilchrist
Howard's film is a love letter to the icon, but ultimately "Pavarotti" is a more of a celebration of the individual behind that façade and a reminder that it's as much his humanity as his talent that made him a star.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
Pavarotti, much like its subject, is fun and full of life for as long as it lasts, but as soon as it's over you realize how little of it you got to see.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
Howard adopts a no-muss-no-fuss tone of benevolent civility that feels like a legitimate way to go, keeping Pavarotti's identity as a singer front and center.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
To learn more about that Pavarotti, and not the myth, we need a better documentary.
Rachel's Reviews (YouTube)
Rachel Wagner
A standard documentary about a famous person...but oh my gosh the singing is just incredible and I like the way they let the singing go for a long time
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
Throughout, the too-brief depictions of Luciano Pavarotti's flaws are conspicuously shrouded in a veil of hagiography.
Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
This was not a man wanting for friends and his likability floods the film. Twelve years since his death he's bound to make even more new fans thanks to Howard's valentine.
