Chicago Tribune
For any of you who've ever daydreamed of playing hoops with Jordan, Michael Jordan to the Max is almost certainly the closest you'll ever get. - 88
New York Post
Just as spectacular as seeing the view from Everest or other natural wonders caught by the IMAX technology. - 80
Los Angeles Times
Made with such verve and clarity that you don't have to be a basketball fan to enjoy it. - 75
Charlotte Observer
It's hardly a balanced biography: There's no mention of Jordan's gambling problems or connections with Nike, whose factories overseas were criticized for underpaying workers and treating them badly. - 75
Miami Herald
What makes this documentary worth seeing is the sensational courtside footage taken with IMAX cameras, which bring a whole new way of seeing the game to fans who don't get to sit in Jack Nicholson's section. - 70
Time
An adoring tone and the familiar slo-mo, wide-angle baskebatics. - 67
Entertainment Weekly
A highly conventional 2-D infomercial. - 63
New York Daily News
We get zilch on what kind of human being he is.
