...An impressive feature film....[The concerts] are splendidly realized musicvid-type affairs, awash in purple-hued smoky lighting atmosphere and right-on camera work...
Variety
Catharsis on the cheap; there's no reason to accept the pretense that the hero has suffered much and changed for the better unless you're predisposed to get swoony over Prince himself.

Rating: 5/5 --
The film is a love letter to collaboration, to passion, and to the power of music: this is Prince's legacy, brought to life nowhere more memorably than in Purple Rain.

[T]his 1994 movie brought the liquid-hipped one to middle America, mutating his funk into warped guitar rock.
Uncut
Showcasing the performer at the height of his creative and commercial success....[T]he performances are nothing short of magical.
