Fresh and Exciting

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

The opening scenes of this movie are beautifully filmed and edited. We get a glimpse into Beyoncé's personal life, I thought it would be a little more in depth, but it's still a good watch. Had she gone into her upbringing, childhood and family more, it would have been more interesting but all in all it's a pretty good documentary.Queen Bey interacts a lot with the fans in this. She just radiates awesomeness and gets very personal in this movie; something she rarely ever does so I applaud her for really opening up. The concert scenes are great and it also delves into the superficial jungle of celebrity spaghetti and explores the mindset that has gotten her this far. Very touching and personal so this is certainly for all Beyoncé fans out there and I would recommend it.. Thanks Bey you truly made your mark on the new age classy woman.

I kept on waiting for a 'big moment' in the 'documentary' but I couldn't find it... watched all the way to the end and I was left confused. A big flop, D-.It's really an uncoordinated jungle of spaghetti which tries too hard in vain to show the 'human' side of Beyoncé.She could have tried to inject some life into it by soliciting interview opinions of her Destine Child friends; co-workers and those around her. It could have injected some life into it and pretended to be independent and unbiased, or rather 'real'. I agree with many reviewers that she has failed lamentably to win new fans with this film. At least she has tried to show her work ethics; that she works hard at what she does hence the 4 stars above.

I feel like I've just seen a different film than a lot of the other reviewers here. I found it to be really warm, open and positive. It's a beautiful series of little moments all strung together, or a joining of the dots as Beyonce likes to put it. She's got a beautiful conversational tone throughout that feels like catching up with an old friend, there's a definite generosity of spirit there. What I found really interesting was her courageous approach to her life, she lets herself be vulnerable, questioning, fierce, sensitive, hard-edged and celebratory. She embraces all of herself in a very honest way. I really just enjoyed it for what it was.

Beyonce the Great had her name and hands on every bit of this production.Do not waste your time on this. I only watched because a friend wanted to see what a train wreck it would be, and it was.I love how she set up the false interview situation, how she begged sympathy and empathy, how the intrigue with her father was a big nothing, and on and on.Vacuous, egotistical, brainless. That's Miss B. Unfortunately, that is now the role model for so many youth.
