Watch Neil Young Journeys Movie Online No Survey


In May of 2011, Neil Young drove a 1956 Crown Victoria from his idyllic hometown of Omemee, Ontario to downtown Toronto's iconic Massey Hall where he intimately performed the last two nights of his solo world tour. Along the drive, Young recounted insightful and introspective stories from his youth to filmmaker Jonathan Demme. Demme, a long-time fan and collaborator, captured these tales of Young's childhood and masterfully weaved them together with his mesmerizing music including songs from the 2010 album Le Noise and powerful renditions of classics including "Ohio", Hey Hey, My My", "I Believe in You" and previously unreleased songs "Leia" and "You Never Call." Through the tunes and the tales, Demme portrays a personal, retrospective look into the heart and soul of the artist. -- (C) Sony Pictures Classics

Review For Neil Young Journeys

"Journeys" is simply a trip most need not take.
Tom Long-Detroit News

I'd say the movie does a fine job of completing the trilogy, but I wouldn't be surprised if Demme and Young have more in them yet.
Dan DeLuca-Philadelphia Inquirer

The concert camera work is sometimes a little tight for comfort (not really interested in Young's bridge work), though it adds to the intensity.
Paul de Barros-Seattle Times

Like Young, Demme often takes an iconoclastic route. This is in part a concert film, yes, but not a traditional one.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic

Forget Crosby, Stills and Nash and maybe even Crazy Horse. Jonathan Demme might be Neil Young's ultimate collaborator.
Chris Riemenschneider-Minneapolis Star Tribune

As a songwriter, Young can still deliver: one of the best tunes here is a lovely, piano-propelled number, "Leia," that he hasn't even released yet.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader

It's OK. But seriously, how many Neil Young documentaries do we need?
Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service

A mournful documentary that combines footage of Young in concert in Toronto with a bittersweet trip to his childhood home in Omemee in southern Ontario.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express

Demme hasn't stopped seeking out new angles on this old warhorse, and even the odd speck of spittle on the lens cannot obscure the fact Young increasingly looks and sounds like one of the all-time greats.
Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK]

Jonathan Demme makes his third concert film with Young, including shots practically right up his nostrils.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph

If this is raging against the dying of the light, long may he rage.
Kevin Harley-Total Film

...too much material drawing from his mediocre Le Noise album and the interview segments where Young drives around Ontario telling stories from his youth are less than revelatory.
Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com

I've seen better concert videos and I've seen better music documentaries. This one is for diehard Neil Young fans.
James Plath-Movie Metropolis

While the special features are partially interesting, I still can't recommend the film as a whole to anyone except die-hard fans of Young's music.
Jeff Beck-Examiner.com

...just Young and his insinuating voice (which I'm inclined to credit more now than I was 40 years ago), various guitars, harmonica and piano, over which he displays a great and tender command.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

Fans of folk rock legend Neil Young who are willing to accept that the guy is well past his prime will respond to the downbeat tone of Jonathan Demme's concert film.
Jim Schembri-3AW

The director is putting Young in the audience's lap, allowing the viewer to examine all the creases and crevices of his grizzled face as well as capturing the emotion the singer pours into his songs.
Bob Bloom-Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)

These two world-renowned and individualistic artists from the worlds of music and film clearly bask in each other's company. We, the audience, would be fools to respond otherwise.
Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle

Long may he run, sure, but 'Neil Young Journeys' has the feeling of a farewell.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

"Journeys" is about looking back - not in sorrow or wistfulness, but in affection and, often, impassioned remembrance of times past and how they still resonate in the present.
Chris Foran-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

A mesmerizing and intimate visit with a performer who is identified most closely with rock 'n' roll, but whose artistic curiosity has taken him in myriad directions musically throughout his 40-plus-year career.
Christopher Lloyd-Sarasota Herald-Tribune

Neil Young Journeys does for some of us what a rare film can do - it revives and renews our spirit. Neil Young and Jonathan Demme. Heart and soul. Wisdom and age. Fire and ashes. Lightning and thunder.
Tony Macklin-tonymacklin.net

For fans, Journeys is like that box set of uneven rarities that they simply must own. For casual friends, it's 90 minutes in good company. For the rest - ho-hum.
Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)

An unusually fulsome tribute to the singer-songwriter from the director of The Silence of the Lambs.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express

On its own terms, "Neil Young Journeys" is an enjoyable concert film of a solo show in Toronto, interspersed with memories of his Canadian boyhood.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch
