Critic Reviews of "Spike Island"
Los Angeles TimesMay 07, 2015Though the story is drawn in broad strokes and overloaded with melodrama, director Mat Whitecross' exuberant feature understands the communal joy and personal necessity of rock 'n' roll.
Hollywood ReporterMay 04, 2015The film has an engagingly zippy and colorful visual style, evoking the splashy Summer of Love motifs around the Roses, with allusions to their music videos and paint-splattered, Jackson Pollock-esque sleeve artwork.

Shadows on the WallJune 27, 2013The filmmakers botch the story with a fragmented script and harshly edited scenes that prevent us from properly engaging with anything that happens.
London Evening StandardJune 22, 2013The piece as a whole gets bogged down in rites-of-passage cliches and, ultimately, seems out of time.
Observer (UK)June 22, 2013Whitecross clearly has both an eye and ear for the rarefied nuances of pop culture ...
