New Review For Movie Sing Your Song
Sing Your Song is broad and complete, but like most biographical documentaries of legendary performers that we've seen of late, it is also hagiographic.
Hank Stuever-Washington Post By far the best parts are the first two-thirds, with the star taking center stage in history as it unfolds.
Verne Gay-Newsday Sing Your Song is beautifully directed by Susanne Rostock to be as much about the man as it is about his times.
Matthew Gilbert-Boston Globe The portrait of Belafonte that emerges from the film is also the portrait of the times of his life, the times of the nation's life in the past 60 years.
David Wiegand-San Francisco Chronicle With excerpts of early clips of his first roles, to current interviews with him, the movie details a life of tremendous creativity and courage.
Linda Stasi-New York Post What a man.
Cath Clarke-Time Out With Belafonte narrating his own story, Sing Your Song increasingly feels more like a personal memoir than objective insight.
Graham Young-Birmingham Mail [Belafonte] emerges at the end as a man of bravery and probity, a formidable contributor and witness to his times.
Philip French-Observer [UK] The snag is his own narration, which gilds the lily - and the closer we get to the present, the more everyone drifts into "yes, we can" soundbites.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph An admirable man, and an admirable film about him.
Derek Malcolm-This is London This is a fascinating portrait of a man who has always had the courage of his convictions.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express The man has lived an incredible life, and this comprehensive doc conveys that in compelling fashion.
Shaun Munro-What Culture The man's good works are plain to see, but his personality remains an enigma.
Henry Barnes-Guardian [UK] A rewarding watch and an inspirational, informative history lesson which begins more strongly than it ends.
Ashley Clark-Little White Lies While it's fascinating, it feels a bit heavy-handed.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall There's so much more to Belafonte than the Banana Boat Song and Rostock does a fine job revealing it in a fitting celebration of a mighty talent.
Anna Smith-Empire Magazine Belafonte is the real deal, an optimistic and inspiring hero whose life story and career narrative is also a journey of civil and human rights struggles and accomplishments.
Christopher Campbell-Movies.com Proves an inspiring watch, even if it does rather gloss over how his wives and children fit into the picture.
Neil Smith-Total Film This timely and thorough account of the extraordinary life of Harry Belafonte finds so much in its subject that it almost suffers by an over-abundance of material.
