Stans Ratings & Reviews
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
Both a tribute and a cautionary tale, "Stans" turns Eminem's iconic song into a gripping exploration of fandom itself by blending fan stories, cultural insight, and rare access to the artist for a documentary that's as emotional as it is unsettling.
Mac the Movie Guy
John Stark
A good film to watch while you're cleaning out your closet. I won't back down, because Stans is a worthy documentary for all interested in Eminem. Sadly, there's still no Mekhi Pfifer.
Common Sense Media
Jennifer Green
This unique documentary is more about a musician's relationship with his fans than the musician himself.
Decider
Johnny Loftus
With a ton of input from a collection of real-life Stans, Stans attempts to reframe the song and its themes as the realest connective tissue possible between an impossibly huge star and the fans who always stayed committed.
The SS Ben Hecht
Stephen Silver
At its core, it's a documentary produced by Eminem's production company, which is primarily about how Eminem is awesome and how Eminem's fans all think he's awesome. This is PR and brand maintenance, not documentary.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
The anatomy of obsession is an absorbing enough topic in an age of runaway social media and the false sense of intimacy it can engender among the celebrity-fixated. But it's a curious juxtaposition Mr. Leckart constructs.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Alex Maidy
While unlikely to turn viewers into fans of Eminem, Stans is a reminder of just how talented Eminem is and how influential his music has been for decades.

Eminem Fans Should go and see this to see a unique look into Eminem's Career and his Stans life and how Fandom really works
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Stans" isn't the be-all, end-all telling of Eminem's tale, but it puts his stamp on it for now, using the lens of his fans to give it perspective.
Tait's Take (YouTube)
Chris Tait
Even if I wasn't a die-hard Eminem fan, I would still find great value in this look into his career and one of a kind fandom. The doc excels in highlighting a selection of unique superfans (Stans), while also detailing Marshall's trials and tribulations.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
When an artist is a producer of a documentary about fans gushing about how the artist made their lives better, it's the cinematic equivalent of a humble brag. Stans is an adequate Eminem tribute film (produced by Eminem) with no new substantial info.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Mildly engaging, often hagiographic and repetitive.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
Stans offers enlightenment about the intimate connection that can be created between strangers through art.
Collider
Luna Guthrie
Steven Leckart's Stans explores the life and career of Eminem, the influence of his song "Stan," and the way his fanbase reflects its warnings - it's a rich and fascinating examination of fandom.
The Only Critic
Nate Adams
But for what it is-a tribute, not an exposé-"Stans" is a solid salute to the power of music, and the deep, sometimes life-saving connection it can foster between an artist and their audience.
Mashable
Shannon Connellan
Though an overtly reverent documentary, Stans is a compelling, respectful exploration of one of the world's most successful and famous artists mainly through the experiences and opinions of his fans.
