3.5 stars out of 4 -- MR. GAGA is an intense pleasure: the extensive footage of Naharin's choreography in performances over the years, beautifully captured by Ital Rziel, gives an intimate and thrilling glimpse of what he is all about.

Rating: 3/5 -- Heymann may have omitted too much due to overestimating the public's knowledge of Naharin's career, yet Mr Gaga is always interesting, and at times deeply moving. Full Review

Naharin's style is both idiosyncratic and accessible, his movements both angular and supple, but above all his dances celebrate the body, built for the joy of motion. Full Review

Rating: 8/10 -- [B]odies are bent, not broken. The results are resilient, ravishing, resounding. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/4 -- Gaga [has] an emphasis on personal interpretation of the music rather than formal technique ... Director Tomer Heymann shows some startling examples of the results; I just wish we could see more of them, and in greater length. Full Review

[W]hen someone can talk as well as they create, the rewards are considerable, as the documentary MR. GAGA: A TRUE STORY OF LOVE AND DANCE convincingly demonstrates.

Rating: 4/5 -- This is a documentary that anyone who cares about art will respond to. Naharin is an intriguing subject -- not always truthful or predictable, but utterly compassionate and principled in his own uneasy way. Full Review
