4/5

A fitting swansong for Altman's career, this is an enjoyable comedy drama with strong performances, lively musical numbers and a handful of decent jokes.

This ode to a bygone style of entertainment is a fitting swan song for Altman.

Altman's star-studded cast is natural and energetic -- with the exception of a surprisingly detached Keillor -- and the Hollywood folks mingle easily, in character, among the real show's performers, a technique Altman perfected in Nashville.

...a lovely and bittersweet fable about morality, the fleetingness of fame, drawing strength from the past and finding the inevitable beauty in the darkest of situations.

In its neatest trick of all, the script circumvents any criticism of its lack of timeliness by very literally casting the proceedings under a shadow of death.

This adaptation is highly-recommended for loyal devotees of the long-running radio show as a cinematic capstone on Keillor's magnificent career.

La despedida de Robert Altman no está entre lo mejor de su obra, pero es una cálida evocación de tiempos y ritos pasados animada por un atractivo elenco.

[Altman's] trademark techniques...lend themselves perfectly to the setting, but his ability to coax remarkable performances from an array of actors has rarely served him better.

Plenty of artistry, even if it is a minor Altman film. So long, Robert.

Poucos cineastas têm ou tiveram a oportunidade de se despedir com tamanha graça e charme de seus fãs... algo que Altman conseguiu com este filme simultaneamente melancólico e alegre.

Altman se despide de este mundo con una muestra más de su principal talento cinematográfico: crear obras que parecen tener vida propia, gracias a su marcado rostro humano.

A Prairie Home Companion is surely the bounciest, cheeriest musical I've ever seen on the subject of death and failure.

The gentle, wistful quality that floods Robert Altman's latest film is accompanied by a robust sensibility about life's raw elements, a sense of humour and a playfulness.

...essentially a sentimental musical comedy, with the barest rudiments of a story lingering in the background.
