What to Know

Critics Consensus

By being just as interested in Martin Scorsese the man as it is in Martin Scorsese the director, Rebecca Miller's rollicking documentary provides as revelatory a portrait of the master filmmaker as admirers could've ever hoped for.

Clarisse Loughrey Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Jan 8
As a whole, Rebecca Miller’s five-part "film portrait" is a robust, near-insurmountable argument for the genius of Martin Scorsese, yet it spends its runtime always teetering on the brink of revelation. Go to Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (LAist) Nov 10
This is such a feast. If you love film in general and Scorsese's work in particular, there is so much here for you. Go to Full Review Nick De Semlyen Empire Magazine Oct 28
5/5
Incisively making links between Scorsese’s life and work, and letting its A-list guest stars tell wonderful stories, this is a smart, fast salute to a goodfella. Go to Full Review Ernesto Diezmartinez Letras Libres Jan 8

"Mr. Scorsese intertwines memories, confessions, and film and musical fragments in a complex cinematic-existential portrait of the American director. [Full review in Spanish]" Go to Full Review Julia Swift My Champlain Valley Nov 26
6/10
You'll learn about filmmaking and Scorsese but I wish we got interviews that included the negative. When we do hear horrible stories, the director laughs, trying not to offend him. We get a 2-dimensional view of him instead of a full 3-dimensional look. Go to Full Review Leonardo Garcia Tsao La Jornada Nov 25
...a tremendously valuable account of the life and wonders of the man who is, I repeat, the best American filmmaker of our era. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews

David F @dfulmer Dec 30 A great documentary worthy of its subject. See more Patrick S @PatrickStruik Dec 21 Highly recommended documentary. See more John Y. @JYJr16 Dec 2 Not sure any other director could warrant a doc this long. Everything covered and plenty of star power contributing. See more Alette G. @LettiSketti Nov 15 I went through a movies phase in the 2010s and wanted to see the kind of American films that were on lists such as 10 greatest movies of all time, etc. Scorsese has a well deserved spot on that list and getting the opportunity to understand him and his upbringing brings so much more meaning to the films of his I always enjoy. Great biographical docu series that made me sit down and want to hear more. See more Anya S @AnyaS Nov 5 Five parts and not near enough! An absolutely riveting and compelling look at the workings of a great creative mind that sees the world in film language, and the family background and influences, personal partnerships and collaborations that shaped his amazing body of work. A perfect blend of film clips and interviews, perfectly edited. Must viewing for movie lovers. Love his Mama! See more Sal D @JustTheLaw Nov 2 An invaluable, intimate look into Scorsese especially for those who are a fan of his work. See more Read all reviews
