Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Most of the screen-time is taken up with people remembering how 'amazing' this event, that place or that person was, debating who was 'the first.' But there's precious little here by way of demonstration.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Rotten
Clearly, Maestro is for people already aware of this history. For everyone else, this is pretty much invitation-only.
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
Fresh
Maps an evocative history of the underground dance music culture of the '70s and '80s.
Ronnie Scheib, Variety
Rotten
Squanders an interesting subject with its amateurish execution.
