Fans will gorge on this deft, year-by-year portrait of the ultimate enduring cult band. Read full review

Stephen Cole

The story of Canada’s tragically unhip – Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart, charter members of a group that has sold 40 million or so albums and discs since 1973, without ever getting a whole lotta love. Never mind the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; Rush never even made it on American TV until funnyman Stephen Colbert invited them on The Colbert Report in 2008. Read full review

Ronnie Scheib

Endearing documentary, winner of Tribeca's audience award, should delight devotees and intrigue nonbelievers. Read full review

I am still astounded to this day that Rush isn't considered one of the greatest bands in rock history. This movie just proves that there genius in what they do is unrivaled. It is a great story of how the band came to be and how they managed to stay together. Any fan of Rush will love this movie.

If you are hardcore Rush fan and you do not know the stuff covered in this movie, then you simply are not a hardcore Rush fan. This is because this doc really just covers the basics of the band and nothing extensive or 'hardcore'. It's not amazing or iconic, but at least the documentary was edited and does have a sophisticated style, and in turn, is not good but great.… Expand
