Critic Reviews
-
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
It's not easy being Meat Loaf.
-
Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Times
In Search of Paradise portrays Meat Loaf as an obsessive, self-punishing performer, striving in vain to put on a live show that matches the visions in his head.
-
Eddie Cockrell, Variety
At once hagiographic and revealing, backstage docu Meat Loaf: In Search of Paradise follows the never-a-dull-moment rocker during Los Angeles rehearsals and an early 2007 Canadian tour.

Frank Lovece, Film Journal International
You can't help but love the Loaf, and that spills over into most anything he does.

Jennifer Merin, About.com
At age 59, Meat Loaf launches a worldwide tour for his album, Bat Out Of Hell III, with new stagings of some of his iconic songs. This fabulous rock doc is a first time look at Meat's grueling artistic process. It's amazing.
