Critical reception
Betty Clarke of The Guardian gave the DVD four out of five stars, calling it a "mixture of animated fantasy and thrilling reality" and felt that the concert that follows the documentary "reveals that the Hives are simply a great garage rock band", writing that lead singer Pelle Almqvist "strut[s] harder than Mick Jagger and sermonis[es] like Jon Spencer".[1]
