Stop Making Sense Reviews

The greatest concert-on-film ever made. Being a fan or not of the Talking Heads doesn’t really matter, this is a journey from song to song throughout the playlist. Rewatchability is shockingly high for what is essentially a filmed concert.

Perfect in every way. Dance your heart out

First time I watched this I put it on in the background while putting together a TV stand. Not an ideal first viewing so I made amends by watching it in the theater for a Saturday matinee with five other people. Both times Demme and the Talking Heads provided all the energy.

I hope to one day be as happy as everyone on that stage

What an incredible filmed concert. You don’t see too many of those

wanna just watch parts on repeat

Hell yeah this is what I needed today. The cinematography is captivating, his movements too, and so is the way the stage tells a story. Very cool.

I’d do unspeakable things to have been at this concert

GOAT live concert movie

Had no idea what this “movie” was going to be about

Live album - not a documentary. Killer

10/10

Damn that television what a bad picture

Wow, wow, wow. Finally watched this and I can’t believe it took me so long. The lighting, set, and songs are all so electrifying! A rekindled love and appreciation for The Talking Heads!

wish i was david

This is the BEST concert film it’s phenomenal and so much better than Taylor Swift’s film

This is an indelible part of my college years. One of the best concert films ever!

Thats one of the best performances I have ever seen in my entire life. 10/10

Electrifying. The only film which has made me want to get up and dance. For what’s a filmed concert, it’s immersive and surprisingly good.

The energy, holy crap.
