Hall's backstory, riddled with tragedy, gets the proper attention and respect here. But it's the music that won't let you stop watching. Apr 21, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The anecdotes work without the music, but if you like the music... Dang, it's a stairway to heaven. Oct 25, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

A stubborn charmer whose life was a magnet for tragedy, Hall is the emotional centre not only of the Muscle Shoals sound but of this film. Oct 24, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The movie is more a collection of cool people telling great stories than it is a structured documentary (despite Camalier's attempts in that direction). But in this case, that's enough. Oct 24, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

There is an over-reliance on commentary by platitude-spouting rock stars...but the film's great virtue is that it will introduce and remind viewers of the wonderfully varied trove of music that came out of these studios. Mar 13, 2019 | Full Review…

It's the music here that shines brightest, and for fans of any of the artists involved, there's more than enough great content on show here to get feet tapping and hearts thumping. Mar 4, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The movie doesn't mention the contemporary Christian or gospel albums recorded at his studio. But what's there is so uplifting it's still well worth your time. Sep 6, 2018 | Full Review…

An occasionally doleful but otherwise lively trip, Muscle Shoals is yet another cinematic shout-out to those unsung heroes who came out of nowhere and made music that mattered. Oct 24, 2017 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Camalier's tuneful if somewhat overlong anecdotal history does the most justice to the Muscle Shoals sound just by listening to it. Feb 4, 2014 | Full Review…
