Reception
The film currently holds a 87% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. NME's Hamish MacBain gave Lemmy a positive review (8 out of 10) noting that "[h]earing him roar the words to ‘Rock It’ alone is reason enough to watch this movie". The review by The Hollywood Reporter found the film's content "entertaining enough, to convey the subject's appeal to audiences beyond the metal crowd." A review at CinemaFunk explains that the film is "relatively straight forward and does not have aesthetic choices beyond shooting the damn thing, portraying it, and moving on. There is no better way to explain Lemmy's own ideologies." Reviewing the film for Twitchfilm.net, Brandon Tenold said that while it wasn't an all-time classic like Woodstock or Gimme Shelter it was still "an affectionate and fun snapshot of one of rock n' roll's most distinctive and enduring figures."
