New Review For Movie Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey
Constance Marks's film is a simple cut-and-paste job, drawing on new interviews and archive, but what it lacks in refinement it makes up for in infectious warmth.
Dave Calhoun-Time Out [Clash is] portrayed as a mild-mannered, kind, giving, supremely talented soul, with a deep love for the puppet he animates and the children who love him.
Marsha Lederman-Globe and Mail Despite an exhaustive series of interviews with famous puppeteers and a few celebs (among them Whoopi Goldberg, who also narrates), it's a documentary that feels a bit tedious by journey's end.
Bruce Demara-Toronto Star Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey" is the story of a young man who knew what he wanted to do and did it, who made his dreams real. This may be the most truly American movie in memory.
Tom Long-Detroit News Watching Clash realize his dream is gratifying, and the behind-the-scenes Muppets stuff is fun.
Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle Backstage at the Muppet works, we see countless drawers filled with eyeballs, eyebrows, whiskers and wigs. It's the only world Kevin wanted to live in, and he made it.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times Even if Elmo was a little after your time, the doc is sure to wring a few tears out of nostalgia prone adults with its behind-the-scenes look at a show everybody grew up with.
Cory Everett-The Playlist Young or old, Elmo fan or not, anyone can find something of real value in Clash's story.
Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com Gentle, sincere, and filled with moments of genuine joy and wonderment, this story of a boy who came to realise his dreams is as good-natured and uncontroversial as Elmo himself.
-Film4 I'll go to my grave believing that Elmo is a punk. Kevin Clash, however, is definitely not a punk, not one bit.
Christopher Long-Movie Metropolis Constance Marks's delightful, unpretentious documentary both captures the man in all his complex simplicity and throws light on his craft.
Philip French-Observer [UK] More than 100 million Elmo owners can't be wrong, can they?
Tara Brady-Irish Times He seems like a genuinely nice celebrity, possibly because he is never recognised in the street.
-This is London A sweet, engaging documentary, Being Elmo largely steers clear of Clash's personal life to offer a wholesome portrait of a man who has dedicated himself to the thing he loved.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express He simply seems to be a good guy who created something that little children love. Fair enough.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] What a terrific bunch of guys the Muppets/Sesame Street creators are, not just spiritually, but technically.
Antonia Quirke-Financial Times Slight, but an uplifting, universal rallying call for creative people to follow their dreams.
Ashley Clark-Little White Lies It's not what you'd call a hard-hitting portrait but, like Elmo, it is ridiculously sweet, sprightly and warm.
Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman A charming, if occasionally surface-deep look at the man behind the fur. Elmo like!
Kim Newman-Empire Magazine A revealing insight into the Henson universe, and a winning study of the hard work that goes into turning fake fur and plastic eyeballs into an international craze.
Hannah McGill-The List Underdogs, dreams, imagination, artistry, unashamed emotion... it's the cinematic equivalent of a big red hug.
Jamie Graham-Total Film [A] wonderful documentary.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid A feel-good documentary about a cheerful guy who's not made out of felt (but probably would be just as cheerful if he was).
