Most of the time, the imagery feels busy and labored, edited into elliptical shards and superimpositions as a way of distracting from the movie's overall hollowness. May 7, 2019 | Full Review…

Sometimes dizzying, enchanting or confounding, but it is certainly never boring. May 3, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Most filmgoers will come away only mildly convinced of Bolden's place as jazz's inventor and even less sure that the movie they just saw spun a coherent or compelling narrative. May 2, 2019 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

No one could ever call "Bolden," a vivid and inventive musical-drama about the unsung life of New Orleans jazz "inventor" Charles "Buddy" Bolden, a by-the-numbers biopic. May 2, 2019 | Full Review…

The film generalizes the story to the point of erasing the man at its center - borrowing from so many places that it ultimately amalgamates its forgotten master out of existence. May 2, 2019 | Full Review…

It's not brilliant, but it does give us a bit of a history about this figure who we know very little about. September 28, 2019 | Full Review…

With an original soundtrack by Wynton Marsalis, Bolden sheds light on the tragic, tortured life of The King of New Orleans Jazz...Buddy Bolden. Reno Wilson and Yaya DaCosta are revelations and totally worth the watch! May 3, 2019 | Full Review…

Considering how so many Black biopics are botched and exploitative, this film was a proper salute to the late, great Buddy Bolden. May 2, 2019 | Rating: A | Full Review…
