Creation Stories Ratings & Reviews
Screen Rant
Ferdosa
The adaptation of the fantastical rise and fall of Creation Records' founder attempts to capture the topsy-turvy vibe of its era, but falls short.
Screen Queens
Amelia Harvey
Creation Stories is a paint by number biopic that overuses narration and cheap editing to try to distract viewers. Perhaps the writers are too close to McGee as this film, as it trivialises the ecstasy driven raves...
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
The actors Scottish accents might feel impenetrable at times, but aside from that, the film handles and indulges every corner of Alan McGees very crowded life...
City AM
Victoria Luxford
Complimented by an excellent soundtrack, Creation Stories is an energetic biopic that never quite captures the energy and excitement of the Cool Britannia years.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Becomes a hyperventilating "Behind the Music" caricature, all familiar flash and precious little substance.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
For much of its running time the movie's reverb knob is set high, and what's echoing are the movies "Trainspotting" and "24 Hour Party People."
The Weekend Warrior (Substack)
Edward Douglas
Id just skip this movie and go back and listen to all the great records McGee released.
The Playlist
Kristy Puchko
A superficial rebellion draped over a disappointingly stale form. Basically, it's like sticking safety pins on a t-shirt pre-torn at The Gap.
TheWrap
Carlos Aguilar
The one constant through the many swerves and chapters in Moran's proficiently directed but unfocused film is Bremner's eccentric portrayal.
NME (New Musical Express)
Kevin EG Perry
Grab your bucket hat, this drug-fuelled nostalgia-fest is absolutely mad for it.
Common Sense Media
Alistair Lawrence
Fans of that era will likely enjoy the story's whirlwind nostalgia trip, which makes good use of a talented cast.
Film Inquiry
Daryl MacDonald
Creation Stories will appeal most to those with an interest in 90s pop culture, but the fast pacing, black humour, and in particular hilarious performance from Ewen Bremner ensures that there is plenty for casual fans to enjoy too.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
If you're really into this bit of music history, it might have some nostalgia value, but you may as well just listen to the music and reflect on your own doubtless more memorable experiences in the period.
