Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic wrote that the "set list offers few surprises -- if you don't recognize a song, that's because it's a new tune added to GRRR! -- but the Stones are in fine form, never seeming tired of playing the hits in a fashion that guarantees a splendid time for one and all".[4] Emma Harrison of Clash called the concert "one of the most memorable shows in the band's history" and the compilation "unequivocally delivers on the description that this body of work is their definitive Greatest Hits live collection".[6] Reviewing the album for American Songwriter, Lee Zimmerman felt that there is "ample evidence of a band still in their provocative prime" and "the fact that the group still maintains the same verve and veracity so many years provides a testimony to both duration and durability".[5]
