Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon

...Mike Myers’ directorial debut is a racy and infectious love letter to his old pal, Hollywood, and music industry svengali Shep Gordon.

...a lively, entertaining guide to the LA music scene in the 70s and 80s and the film business...

The movie is like sitting at a restaurant with a guy who’s got some of the best stories you’ve heard in your life—provided, that is, that you’re into stories about showbiz.

...shows a unique collagist sensibility, staging a few reenactments of Gordon’s recollections and intercutting them with extant film clips from period pieces.

Supermensch: The Legend of Shep Gordon is not just a supremely entertaining glimpse at the high life of Hollywood, but also a sympathetic look at a man who achieved much in his life...
