Studio 54 is an opulent and balanced tribute to '70s pop culture.

Studio 54 only lasted 33 months but would become the stuff of legend, and Matt Tyraneur's documentary tells the club's story wonderfully well.

Schrager proves agreeable company and, though occasionally evasive, seems frank about his transgressions.

It's amazing someone like Scorcese hasn't taken this and given it the Casino treatment - although given the reality shown here, you'd be hard pushed to make it any better.

Studio 54 shows what it is like to capture lightning in a bottle, as well as what it means to get burned. The archival footage is fabulous, and this film is a rollicking good time.

The result is a fittingly fab story.

For those of us who never went (and probably couldn't have gotten in if we tried), "Studio 54" lets you taste a bit of the ecstasy.

It's frustratingly broad on its place in club culture.
June 18, 2018
The story of the most famous nightclub in 1970s New York has been told countless times, but Matt Tyrnauer's documentary boasts the presence of the hotel mogul Ian Schrager, who made his name as the club's co-founder.

You have to applaud the steadiness of purpose in Tyrnauer's approach: from the mayhem of the dancefloor he has extracted a...poignant thesis about its significance to the wider culture of the day.

An enjoyable ride that captures both the excitement of the party and the shameful details of its aftermath.

The story is both better and worse than I was expecting, but if I ever stumble across a time machine, that's still where I'm heading first.
