New York Magazine (Vulture) -
The ensemble is stupendous--howlingly great--and the music goes deep.

Entertainment Weekly -
It's an enjoyable ramble, with a feel for what made the early days of rock as wild as any that followed.

Seattle Post-Intelligencer -
The movie's biopic aspect is multiplied by the sheer number of players who made Chess the first family of Chicago blues, R&B and rock 'n' roll...That all of them were later inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame attests to their enormous influence on popular music and culture.

The Hollywood Reporter -
In watching this film, it's best not to worry much about the film's fidelity to history but rather simply lean back and enjoy one great jam session on film.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Cadillac Records is an account of the Chess story that depends more on music than history, which is perhaps as it should be. The film is a fascinating record of the evolution of a black musical style, and the tangled motives of the white men who had an instinct for it.
