The film has had a long and winding road to screens following delays, reshoots and even mid-production rewrites to change some of the film's more controversial scenes.
In Radio Times' two-star review, Terry Staunton called the film, “a test of endurance, as one over-simplified plot point follows another and Michael’s dialogue increasingly embraces cod Messianic gibberish”.
Similarly, Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian panned the film, calling it “a 127-minute trailer montage assembling every music-movie cliche you can think of”, in his two-star review.

If that sounds like damning with faint praise, it’s because none the few positive reviews of the film that exist at the time of writing are particularly glowing.
