Free of the hagiographic overtones that dog many documentary profiles, Beware of Mr. Baker presents a clear-eyed, thoroughly gripping look at one of rock's greatest -- and most personally problematic -- musicians.

Bleakly entertaining, Beware of Mr Baker neither eulogises nor patronises its subject; one day (though possibly not soon), Baker may take it upon himself to say thanks. May 17, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

We are always being told that books and movies have to have "sympathetic" lead characters - well, here's a documentary that does very well without one. May 16, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

An interesting character study interspersed with classic rock, jazz and Afrobeat clips. Nothing more, but certainly nothing less. May 16, 2013 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's refreshing to watch a music doc, especially one with such intimate access to its subject, in which barely anyone is unreservedly polite about the person in question. May 14, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Ginger Baker is, and was, a train wreck. Yet this film, like Baker's onstage playing, is always riveting, and something you can't look away from. Feb 28, 2013 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

A deceptively unconventional rock 'n' roll tale of drink, drugs, drums and ponies, Bulger's Beware of Mr. Baker saddens as much as it elates. Feb 25, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

As jaw-dropping as Ginger Baker's drumming is, the man himself is even more rattling. Dec 17, 2018 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…
