Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Oct 28, 2005
A promotional video masquerading as a documentary. Go to Full Review Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News Sep 16, 2005
2/4
Because his self-conscious musings are given so much space, it helps to arrive at the movie already awed by Shicoff's talents so you can overlook his (and this dramatically unfocused film's) flaws. Go to Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times Sep 16, 2005
3/5
To observe the tenor Neil Shicoff's thrilling performance of the final aria from Fromental Halevy's 1835 opera 'La Juive' ('The Jewess') at the Vienna State Opera is to watch a singing actor shoot the moon. Go to Full Review David Noh Film Journal International Mar 1, 2007
A certain obviousness of tone creeps into the film at moments. This obviousness unfortunately overwhelms her cinematic climax. Go to Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide Sep 16, 2005
2.5/4
[Fisher's] heavy-handed montage of war, civil rights demonstrations... is so amateurish it very nearly succeeds in trivializing the power of [Shicoff's] performance. Go to Full Review Phil Hall Film Threat Sep 15, 2005
4/5
