Carol Channing: Larger Than Life Ratings & Reviews
Film Threat
Phil Hall
As show biz documentaries go, this one is a must-see.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
There's more than stage talk in Dori Berinstein's documentary: Hiding within it is a remarkable, moving love story.
TheDivaReview.com
Diva Velez
In her ninth decade, Carol Channing is the subject of a documentary about her incredible life and devotion to entertainment that is as delightful and effervescent as the bubbly star herself.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
There's little sense of the Carol Channing beneath the overdone makeup - if there is one - except maybe to celebrate her fourth marriage to a high school classmate who died recently.
Paste Magazine
Dan Kaufman
Carol Channing: Larger than Life is like a warm cinematic hug from Shubert Alley, not to be missed by anyone with even the remotest passing interest in Channing or Broadway history.
Back Stage
Pete Hammond
This is a love letter to a born star and living legend that will make you laugh, cry, and be thankful that the great Channing is still here among us.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Carol Channing is 91 going on 7. That is meant as a compliment.
San Francisco Chronicle
Leba Hertz
[Captures] the essence of Carol as one of those creatures of the theater that when you see her onstage, you know you've seen something special.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Not merely affectionate but cheerfully indulgent.
Observer
Rex Reed
Let's hope Dolly finds her way back to center stage and never goes away again.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Dori Berinstein's desultory, fawning profile of the nonagenarian performer devotes many of its padded 88 minutes to Channing's greatest success, playing the title yenta in Hello, Dolly! on Broadway in the 1960s.
NPR
Bob Mondello
The lady was - and remains - a pro, still glowin', crowin', goin' strong.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
A terrifically entertaining, smartly constructed trip down memory lane with one of the American stage's most legendary troupers.
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
A bubbly 90-year-old mascot from the golden days of the American musical, this doc's subject is certainly larger than the conventional testimonial treatment she's given.
AV Club
Alison Willmore
The soft touch makes perfect sense, though anyone not already lined up at the altar of old-school Broadway will find the film slower going.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Dori Berinstein's tender but sharp portrait finds a lot of depths in the woman whom many see as a camp figure.
Variety
John Anderson
A celebration and a lament -- a celebration of Channing's seven decades as musical comedy star, and a lament that there's really no one like her anymore.
