Studio 54 Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
It feels a bit too tame.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
The movie tries hard to make the story of the club's rise and fall emblematic of an era, but in the end, it's about a couple of old friends from the neighborhood who got lucky, got greedy, and got caught.
Observer
Rex Reed
Juicy fodder for the "in" crowd that lived through it, as well as the outsiders who heard about it but couldn't get in.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
In 98 minutes, Studio 54 captures the club on its best nights and on its worst mornings.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
The documentary is good on the gay aspect of 54, and disco generally.
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
Tyrnauer tries to find the heart of whatever Studio 54 was all about, but never actually gets there - instead, we're left to goggle at the footage and still photos of near-naked dancers and gossip-column habitues.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
Studio 54 is resonant because it offers such a reasonable and poignant answer.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
The stills of dancefloor abandon practically ooze with sweat, poppers, and cocaine. They capture the moment.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
There's little revealed here that isn't already part of the public record (or gossip columns), though the film does go into the details of the club's precipitous rise and fall.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
The documentary nurtures our sympathy for Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager without shortchanging their hypocrisies.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
The film greatly benefits from having the more introverted Schrager still around to provide firsthand insight, with the luxury of 40 years of reflective perspective, into the inner workings of his and Rubell's legendary creation.
TheWrap
Dan Callahan
The feeling persists that we are very far from hearing what really happened there.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The movie is a fast account that is sometimes a tad facile in its analysis of a cultural moment. But as Mr. Schrager's personal too-much-too-soon story, it's compelling.
Film Festival Today
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
Tyrnauer is a consummate storyteller, and we get a meticulous account of both the macro and micro view of what happened.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
An enjoyable ride that captures both the excitement of the party and the shameful details of its aftermath.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
For those of us who never went (and probably couldn't have gotten in if we tried), "Studio 54" lets you taste a bit of the ecstasy.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
It's enough to make you want to put on your platform shoes and dance under strobe lights.
The Patriot Ledger
Al Alexander
Burn, baby, burn, Matt Tyrnauer's "Studio 54" is a disco inferno of fun and nostalgia.
The Film Experience
Glenn Dunks
For a venue that prided itself on madcap extravagance, the documentary feels somewhat tame as if deliberately targeted at the discotheque nightclubbers who are now respectful suburbanites.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
For those who never were chic enough to get in the club's door, this might be the next best thing.
