Rush fans rejoice! This comprehensive documentary about one of rock’s greatest bands offers unprecedented access to the Canadian trio, recounting the band’s history and background from the childhoods of founding members Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee to the discovery of drummer Neil Peart and on through their catalog of gold and platinum records — a collection of top-sellers that ranks third only behind The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Directors Scot McFadyen and Sam Dunn bring an unbridled joy to this project, crafting a documentary that’s thorough enough to satisfy even the most rabid fan and still remains accessible to the uninitiated.
