Time Out
Forgive the film its "Napoleon Dynamite" overquirk; a loving god is watching all, genuflected to on bedroom-wall posters and seen in the film's final five minutes--and if you're not a Rush fan, this is not your movie

Los Angeles Times
Adventures of Power just may teach the world that, as hard as it is to catch the wind, it's harder still to drum the air.

The New York Times
Sprinkled with moderately amusing comic moments, but basically your enjoyment of this film will be proportional to your tolerance for the one-joke phenomenon of air drumming.

Variety
Absurdist underdog yarn that feels positively Martian in its brand of tom-tomfoolery. Like a "Saturday Night Live" sketch gone on too long, Ari Gold's feature debut will tax unsuspecting viewers, while sending those on Gold's special wavelength into seizures of delight.

Austin Chronicle
Not even the always reliable talents of McKean and Lynch can help pull this comedy out of its ironic slump.

Barely watchable, despite the presence of such pros as Michael McKean and Jane Lynch.
