Not Fade Away Ratings & Reviews
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
The movie is a psalm to those who, far from pursuing the path of the Rolling Stones, stayed trapped under a rock.
Denver Post
Ricardo Baca
This film could have been -- should have been, even -- something special. But it's not.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The period details are spot-on and the soundtrack is great.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
It turns out that even though you can take the boy out of episodic TV, you still can't take him out of New Jersey.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Yes, it's about rock and New Jersey, but it's also about getting a life going and dreaming, and that's timeless, classic stuff.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Well-observed but occasionally disjointed, it's a film that's more about thematic tone, sound and images than it is driven by plot.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
There are plenty of laughs along with the melodrama as the band and its members struggle through young adulthood.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
A movie that feels at once deeply personal and more than a little confused.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
Rock & roll is here to stay. And David Chase gets some well-deserved satisfaction.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Mostly, Not Fade Away is a hit.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
The performances and music are a pleasure, and Chase's affection for the period is palpable.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Aiming for a generational statement that encompasses the entire '60s experience, [Chase] turns unexpectedly inept.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Somewhat autobiographical and worth seeing despite its somewhat muffled quality ...
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Chase has captured this one for all time. He delivers on the movie's title.

Leonard Maltin
It's imperfect, and overlong, but there are moments as poignant as any I've seen on film this year.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
It's a "personal" movie that, in some ways, seems impersonal. Everything seems a bit too varnished and staged and overly familiar.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The acting is OK, but none of the leads has the kind of sizzle that might have turned this into something as special as another film set roughly in the same era, "Diner.''
New York Times
Stephen Holden
By focusing on musicians who are talented but finally not good or persistent enough to succeed in the big time, "Not Fade Away" offers a poignant, alternative, antiheroic history of the big beat.
NPR
Mark Jenkins
Alas, Not Fade Away is far less pungent than the period it attempts to evoke.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
Despite the nostalgia-drenched idealism coursing through it - and a cinematic familiarity to the subject matter - this is not a story that's neatly told or safely predictable.
