Justin Bieber Movie

Yeah, I went to watch it, and I’m not ashamed at all. I don’t hate the kid like a lot of people do. I don’t love him either. I’m part of that middle, grey group who no one really cares about.

Overall, as a documentary, it was okay. It told the basics of his story. There was nothing much we haven’t heard though: He came from a small town, he got his fame on Youtube, he’s a superstar now. That’s all that it really told us. So when it came to historical content, it was pretty limited I’d say.

A lot of it was just geared toward boosting public opinion of the guy. It was mostly sentiments about how he was born with the talent and how he was always a natural showman. They showed baby videos of him, which promptly led the large mass of girls sitting in front of me to go “AWWWW.” Eh. I’m not really affected by baby videos. In my opinion, really, all babies are like that.

I think this movie was more a publicity stunt than a real documentary. Half of it was just portions of his concerts. So, as a documentary, it was pretty average: not great, but definitely not bad. It’s just the fact that it’s Justin Bieber that makes people think it’s a big deal.

Verdict: 6/10
