Critics Consensus: While the famously tight-lipped Lorne Michaels escapes closer scrutiny yet again in Morgan Neville's affectionate documentary, this tour through the SNL maestro's career is packed with plenty of amusing and worthwhile anecdotes.

Just because someone has an interesting job doesn't make them an interesting subject for a documentary. Case in point

Everyone states the obvious: Lorne isn’t going to love being followed around with a camera and that Neville isn’t going to learn much more about the man than he already did going into the project.

If you’re a “Saturday Night Live” fan, you’re not going to want to miss “Lorne,” since it’s a puckishly delightful and revealing movie.

Though “Lorne” is prone to some overly relaxed pacing, the film is held tight enough by the grip that Michaels has maintained over his little fiefdom for more than half a century.

The result is an ode of sorts to elusive bossdom, where the cryptic may remain cryptic, decoded just enough to let us appreciate the achievement.
