Not a Must Watch
We are at a saturation point with these types of documentaries. I’m starting to wonder whether there’s anything else really more to say. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Director David Soutar deserves genuine credit. In this era of sanitised music documentaries, he’s given the authorised tale of Take That...a narrative energy, discreet commentary and an aesthetic that captures the contradictions of pop music... Go to Full Review

Mixing archive clips with new interviews, the three-parter is lively and candid — Williams is incapable of not being both. Go to Full Review
Johnny Loftus Decider Mar 2
Over three episodes, Take That shows that while you might not know the principal players, in the game of pop stardom, the broad strokes of getting famous, falling on tough times, and finding your way back are often quite familiar. Go to Full Review
Barbara Ellen Observer (UK) Feb 2
If Take That has undermined the increasingly wearying “my big glossy doc” template, it’s done us all a favour. Go to Full Review

4/5
Take That retells well-worn stories over never-before-seen footage, but it still remains deeply affecting, listening to three men in middle age finally taking accountability and tending to wounds more than 35 years old. Go to Full Review

Michael B. @KVD1969 Feb 13 From 90s boy-band mania to a record-breaking trio, the definitive portrait of Take That charts 35 years of global stardom, devastating splits, and the resilience of a band that learned they needed each other to survive. See more Darrin N @RT26777594 Feb 5 Enjoyable and gives good insight See more John C @JohnNOhio Feb 1 Great documentary about a boy band on the other side of the pond. As an American I know a little about Robbie Williams from the album "The Ego Has Landed", but knew nothing about "Take That." I would compare them to "NKOTB" or "The Backstreet Boys" and wonder why "Take That" never made big it in The United States. The documentary has me listening to them and I am very impressed by Gary Barlow's song writing. See more I. A @Ahsoka41 Jan 29 I was 14 when "Back for good" was released.Beautiful song and good show.
