Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Possibilities will likely draw in only the most hardcore of Hancock's fans.
Rotten: [Possibilities] feels more like a behind-the-scenes CD promo than a fully realized film.
Rotten: With its straightforward track-by-track recording-session clips, it feels like something you'd find on the bonus disc of a deluxe package.
Rotten: As directed by Doug Biro and Jon Fine, the film plays like one long commercial.

Great View
This movie provides an interesting perspective on Herbie Hancock's musical tapestry called "Possibilities". The work with the individual artists in various studios and settings is really a pleaasure to watch. The interaction with Annie Lennox on "Hush, Hush, Hush" is especially moving.
Christina aguilera!
Christina aguilera was the only one who acually could sing!
