Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - Chris Nashawaty
The film's lack of such signature Hendrix tunes as ''Purple Haze'' may put off some — the filmmakers couldn't get the rights — but I'd argue that this obstacle forced Ridley to zig where most biopics zag. Which, when you think about it, is fitting for the story of a lefty who played his guitar upside down.

The Guardian - Henry Barnes
The result is an unpredictable film, a difficult approximation of a biopic. But it delivers a Jimi Hendrix experience somehow the richer for sidelining the man and subverting his music.
80
The Hollywood Reporter - John DeFore
What moviegoers do get is a film both thoughtful and convincing, sympathetic but not flattering to a man who had just three years after this period's end to make himself immortal.
76
Film.com - James Rocchi
A closer, richer examination of a slice of time as specific as it is short.

Variety - Andrew Barker
Unsatisfying on a musical level, it’s nonetheless a well-acted, sporadically impressive piece of filmmaking.
