Never gets old, never boring. Watched it for the 1st time in the 80s and still watching it. Love it! See more Christine K @RT13999440 Nov 19, 2025 Genius! Love David Byrne and the Talking Heads! Watch America Utopia too. See more Mason M @RT73597940 Oct 6, 2025 Stop Making Sense was a really great concert film with plenty of great energy, music, and photography to go around. Why I think this film stands out so much among concert films is because it's not just a camera shooting the stage. The cinematography is beautifully done, and it really makes you feel like you're not in the crowd but up there on the stage with the band and all their craziness. And much of the credit should go to the band themselves. It's probably no surprise, since I'm watching this film, that I'm a huge Talking Heads fan, so of course I absolutely loved the music in this film. The staging of this concert by the band is definitely a strong point in how they kept bringing out new members and doing new things. And then of course the band's energy and how excited many of them seemed also added to it. As far as concert films go, Stop Making Sense is pretty much as good as you can get. See more Phish P @RT07422190 Sep 18, 2025 Just a joyful musical experience. I can't stop watching this. So fun. I put it at the top. I'm a TH fan so may be a little biased but I danced in my living room the whole time. My son got into it too. See more Read all reviews
