The movie suffers from a lack of objectivity about its subject as well as from a lack of vision about the film’s true direction...

Strange and misguided...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 3, 2023

The biopic as Wikipedia entry where you look up the Wikipedia entry and see that it is, in fact, more accurate — a better biopic — than the movie.

It's a music tale without a pulse, without rhythm. And most tragically, given its subject, without soul.

| Original Score: D | Mar 31, 2023

The problem with “Spinning Gold” is not that it's a bad movie so much as a boring one about a true story.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Mar 31, 2023

I try to refrain from being hyperbolic when I don’t care for a motion picture, but there were moments during the restless musical biopic Spinning Gold where I felt like it was attempting to physically assault me.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 31, 2023

If you love music, history and well-made movies, then you should like “Spinning Gold.” It is fun and a good escape.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 31, 2023

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: Dreamer bucks convention, struggles, success leads to excess and drugs, marriage falls apart, etc., etc.

A laborious, 137-minute biopic that manages to be both overstuffed and underfed...If you want to celebrate (Neil) Bogart's raucous career, you're better off staying home and cranking "Kiss Alive."

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 31, 2023

Bogart’s creative affinity for artists, for his collaborators, gets muffled by the spin of the movie, which tries to make him a singular legend.

Hats off to Neil Bogart and congratulations to his son for making a fair attempt at telling his story.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 30, 2023
