Critics reviews

Despite [its] narrowed focus, A Personal Journey is a detailed inventory of the contents of a toolbox that Scorsese used to assemble everything he’s done, and he’s not shy about pointing out exactly where his inspiration is rooted.

[A] vastly entertaining, strong-willed documentary... [in which Scorsese] raises fundamental questions that a neater survey might have ignored. Some lure us back to the profound impact of movies.
