Entertainment Reviews:
Jeff Feuerzeig's documentary portrait, The Devil and Daniel Johnston, makes it clear that Johnston and his music are nothing if not sincere, and, moreover, that he's one messed-up guy.

Rating: 3/4 --
A heartbreaking, yet strangely uplifting and inspirational, exploration of the fine line between genius and madness, and how sometimes, one becomes impossible to discern from the other.
Miami Herald
I found the documentary surprisingly diverting as a case study.

Rating: 5/5 --
Rock 'n' roll's capacity for recycling legend means the stories of Johnston's life, and the way in which they're told, could easily fall into cliché. Instead they are original, engrossing and sometimes heartbreaking.

Rating: 4/5 --
The Devil and Daniel Johnston is an unflinching yet loving look at the outsider musician's life. It's also the most revealing look at genius and mental illness since Terry Zwigoff's 1994 documentary Crumb.

Description by OLDIES.com:
His drawings and sketches are exhibited and sold worldwide. Beck, Wilco, Sonic Youth and Pearl Jam have recorded his songs. But beneath Daniel Johnston's success as an artist and musician is an incredible story of genius touched by madness: diagnosed as manic-depressive, Johnston has spent the last three decades of his life in-and-out of mental institutions.
