The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: A-
"Infused with a kind of cosmic nostalgia, the movie does a graceful Tennessee waltz around matters of mortality and acceptance, art and family, hope and reconciliation."
Austin American-Statesman: 4 of 5 stars
"... as cemented in nostalgia for the show as the show is nostalgic for an earlier age."
The Palm Beach Post: B+
"The worst that could be said about A Prairie Home Companion is that it is inconsequential. But the movie so compensates by being diverting that the need to add up to something — an expectation that Altman has been avoiding for most of his career — seems beside the point."
Associated Press: B
"Keillor proves as ideal a master of ceremonies on film as he is on radio."
