We love the Rolling Stones, as much for their longevity as for the great albums they made in the '60s and '70s. The material never seems stale in this startlingly close-up concert film from director Martin Scorsese. He's a Stones fans, too, as anyone who knows "Mean Streets" or "GoodFellas" can tell. Now in their 60s, Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie haven't lost a lick of stage presence or musical power. Scorsese's cameras get right in the guys' wrinkled but joyous faces, and you really ought to catch this flick on an Imax screen, both for the visual detail and the kick-ass sound system.
If you aren't a fan, you probably shouldn't bother. If you are, this is a guaranteed delight, a mix of hits and surprises that never lets up. We give it a B+
