    • Though theres still more than an hour left after the big moment, nothing nearly as momentous happens. ( Read More )
    • Though Take Me to the River also offers up some civil rights history lessons between recordings, it feels like a mishmash effort overall, more a home movie than a theatrical release. ( Read More )
    • Brent McKnight

      But before long hes gone again, and his overall presence never amounts to much. ( Read More )
    • Keith Uhlich

      This isnt the movie to turn to for a rich sense of Staxs history. ( Read More )
    • Michael O'Sullivan

      Take Me to the River includes just enough history of the civil rights era to lend it gravitas. The color blind recording practices of studios like Stax were an anomaly at the time and are well worth noting. ( Read More )
