Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The restored rerelease is a time capsule of Afros, anger and attitude.

fresh:
A time when not only a single record company could put together a day like this, but could then give every dollar made to charity.

rotten:
It just has the air of something too carefully laid out in advance. It's so busy being glossy and optimistic that it doesn't even allow its performers time to create on screen a measure of the excitement they might have created in person.
– Vincent Canby,

fresh:
A candid, colorful and deeply meaningful sociocultural time capsule.
