Sam Van HallgrenNov 5, 2023I just want to point out that there's an homage to this shot from Citizen Kane in this concert film. We don't talk enough about Prince the cinephile. Under the Cherry Moon is a Fellini film. The auditory landscape of 1999 was reportedly influenced by the fact that he was…

just turned 28 and i've returned to this with newfound infatuation from different angles every year around my birthday since before i was a teen, so here i am again—this album ushered in a magical era during which prince's creative floodgates were wide open and all these…
cleansing my soul of addiction🦋May 15, 2020Stop Making Sense... but make it sexy. I'm astonished that Prince was an actual human being who lived among us. As opposed to a fancifully dressed, carnally crazed, virtuosically gifted music god, which is what he comes across as. Saw a slightly truncated version of…
Matthew NobleOct 12, 2023Undeniable craft. Prince hits like 90 costume changes in this as he transforms from his sleek 80s persona to the more down to earth troubadour 90s persona. I love that despite this being a self directed concert piece there’s almost 0 vanity within it. Prince is dwarfed on…

Got to see this in IMAX and it was nothing short of a party. I had a blast experiencing this electrifying concert movie where I was joined by a packed theater full of die hard Prince fans, cinephiles, and people simply looking to enjoy the work of one the greatest artists…
K GrayJun 10, 2026Watched for an upcoming episode of The Last Video Store with Kleber Mendonça Filho I think I’m actually convinced this is the greatest concert film. It’s just spectacular! If Stop Making Sense gives you the feeling of being at a concert, this gives you the feeling of…

Metacritic
Prince himself, passing through a spectrum of costumes and sexual roles, is never less than commanding, as performer, composer, and director.
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Chicago Reader
In Purple Rain, Prince found an answer in his own life, and provided intercuts to an autobiographical story. This time, he lets the music simply speak for itself. It's fun as far as it goes, but Purple Rain, of course, went further.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
The cutting and camera work in Sign ‘O’ the Times are too intrusive, and the somewhat discordant songs worked better as a magnificent hodgepodge on the album. Still, this concert movie (which barely made it to theaters) is a feisty, engaging show.
