Review For Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey |
[Plods] from one performance to the next with unnecessary asides for veteran Journey members to talk about their own lives (trivia of interest to megafans and no one else). Sara Stewart-New York Post
As infectious as Pineda's enthusiasm is, "Don't Stop Believin' " too often relies on his inherent appeal as a film subject, rarely probing more deeply than the narrative he and his bandmates provide. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
Ms. Diaz settles for a flabby, repetitive showcase for the songs and an attaboy for their newest singer. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times
Pineda's ebullience is infectious, and "Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey" is a pleasant story of dreams coming true. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
Diaz insists on selling Pineda's promo-friendly myth at the expense of the richer, more complicated story of a dreamer who learns to become the durable professional his bandmates expect. Scott Tobias-NPR
Though Perry probably wanted nothing to do with her project, his participation might have pushed this glimpse at the band's evolution into a genuine revelation. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News
The film is mostly surface-value kicks, relaying the basic parts of the story (poor guy battling drug and alcohol addiction suddenly makes it big) without being particularly probing or revealing too many shades of gray. Eric Melin-Lawrence.com
Entertaining and well-edited, but ultimately shallow. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
Pineda is consistently treated as human rather than legend. It's completely appropriate that the film is just good enough, nothing too extraordinary or lasting in our minds. Christopher Campbell-Film School Rejects
Applause for its ambition in scope, which makes it far more than just a commercial for some 80s band's latest nostalgia tour. Jason Gorber-Twitch
This movie works beyond just a modern-day fairy tale. Nina Garin-San Diego Union-Tribune
Real-life Cinderella story with quiet emotion and a down-to-earth working band make this rock documentary far more than an episode of "Behind the Music." Frank Lovece-Film Journal International
Watching Don't Stop Believin' one always gets the sense that there's a larger story that Diaz can't -- or simply doesn't want to -- tell. Ethan Alter-Television Without Pity
As inspiring as much of (Arnel) Pineda's story is, Filipina director Ramona S. Diaz may be a little too enamored with her subject and, subsequently, comes across at times as less than objective. Fr. Chris Carpenter-Movie Dearest
The movie, to its credit, is smirk-free, but director Diaz fails to craft the material into much more than an infomercial. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
Powered by subject Arnel Pineda's charm and humour as well as that excellent classic rock soundtrack, Don't Stop Believin': Everyman's Journey is an inspiring and entertaining fairy tale you really can believe in. Diva Velez-TheDivaReview.com
You'd be hard pressed too many other documentaries that leave you feeling so damn great. Robert Levin-amNewYork
An engaging, sweeping overview of Pineda's story, which is buoyed by the cheesy but classic sounds of Journey and Pineda's soft-spoken, humble charm. Jonah Flicker-Paste Magazine
Diaz ... emphasizes the uplifting aspects of Pineda's Journey experience, describing how he came from poverty and delinquency, before he dedicated himself to his craft, caught a lucky break, and became an inspiration to struggling nobodies everywhere. Noel Murray-AV Club
