Bruce Springsteen's Letter to You Reviews

The Boss looks back at a career that's been filled with huge highs and devastating lows.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 18, 2021

It's obvious that Bruce Springsteen has been thinking a lot about living these days and he lays it all out on the table with Letter to You.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 29, 2021

A heartfelt missive set to muscle and brawn of songs baring Springsteen's soul and addressing his growing awareness that the best things in life are finite.

| Original Score: A- | Dec 6, 2020

As he puts on his beat up jacket and walks out into the snowy New Jersey night, he is the same kid who walked the same beaches sixty years ago.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 30, 2020

If you're a Bruce Springsteen fan -- or even if you have an affection for his music -- Bruce Springsteen's Letter to You is a don't-miss documentary.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Nov 18, 2020

A band unlike any other, Springsteen's E Street Band gets a fitting tribute in the new documentary, chronicling the making of their latest album.

| Nov 6, 2020

Beautifully made. Springsteen fans will love it

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 3, 2020

I'm not sure I'd quite call it 'a movie,' but this is one of the more soulful promotional items you'll come across.

| Oct 31, 2020

A rousing and rockin' documentary in which Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band record a new album and the Boss offers spiritual commentary on the songs.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Oct 30, 2020

Letter to You pays affecting, rousing testimony to the durable power of connections forged through song. Time well spent.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 27, 2020

A hugely entertaining and very moving examination of the creative process of one of rock's greatest talents, and his beloved, once-again-reunited band.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Oct 26, 2020

This documentary is every bit as special as the album, Springsteen's best in years. It's joyful, it's magical and, yes, it's life affirming, too.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Oct 26, 2020

[W]hen Zimny lets the images speak for themselves, "Letter to You" achieves a moving power.

| Oct 26, 2020

Bruce, as we see in the studio instructing his engineer and E Street bandmates, really does run the show with a strong hand. The "Boss" label is not ironic, though he maintains some levity ("Roy -- don't play it up higher, just don't play it so LOW.").

| Original Score: B | Oct 24, 2020

With too much salutation and not enough action, this is a (fine) companion to the album but not a freestanding film.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 24, 2020

An incredibly beautiful documentary... It's very illuminating.

| Oct 24, 2020

The documentary buttresses the point that when it comes to passion to communicate through music, after all these years, Bruce Springsteen and his mates are still on fire.

| Oct 23, 2020

Objectively, Letters to You is a strong documentary - thoughtful in tone and composition, nicely photographed, thematically focused.

| Oct 23, 2020

Letter stands as an homage to the past without being shackled to it. And at 71, Springsteen has his eye on the end of the road.

| Oct 23, 2020

Letter to You is a tribute to the E Street Band and how they are still as vital and energetic, and still play like they need the money.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Oct 23, 2020
