Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

mihai_chindris Avicii, the one who shaped electronic music in unprecedented ways, has left us with the memory of his songs. Beyond being a legend in this industry, I've always admired his humbleness and sincerity. I know growing and living as an introvert is a hard task to endure, I am aware of this myself, cause I am an introvert too, but what striked me was the way he managed to overcome all the odds and rumors surrounding him, by pushing his limits and always pursuing the next level. His alcohol addiction looks so shocking to people, like he was the only one ever addicted to this kind of thing, but he did it for the reason to forget about the drama inside his head and enjoy the present moment while he was on stage. He may now be singing in heavens, but at least we are left with the remembrance of his everlasting music.

webwizardbe Even if your not familiar with dance music or don't like "Ibiza"-sounds (I hate the sound), this docu is worth the watch. It's an as honest possible film about the drama of being the biggest superstar in a certain music scene, you have to do your thing... It's difficult writing a review for this docu without spoiling, but I promise you, there's a real life drama story behind it that unfolds. This ain't just a music docu, it's a drama docu about a human being influenced by his surroundings. I watched the movie just before the tragic news a few days ago, and those who wanna know why, well I think this docu gives a good hint what happened on that vacation in the resort.

oden-97752 This documentary is a warning example to everyone who works with music and shows the non glamorous side of being a famous artist and how cold and brutal the music industry can be. Tim, an insecure, naive and introvert young guy who really didn't liked to be in the center of attention, had to fight against his anxiety night after night and pushed himself so hard that it eventually destroyed him. Add free alcohol, sleep deprivation and bad people around you, and you're in for a disaster to come. I hope this documentary will help people to wake up and realize what's important in the music industry and that some people have to say stop when people are pushed too hard.

Rare Movie Critic I watched this film 2 days after the announcement of Avicii's death, but we still don't know what the cause of death is. Avicii was 28 years old - way too young to die.It is a story of too much too soon, but there is no way the filmmaker could've predicted this - Avicii wanted out, he wanted to quit touring, music, alcohol, the party-life, everything. We see it in the film, how little he cared for fame and fortune, how he lacked the maturity to understand the consequences of his actions (cancelling tours and concerts) and that he wasn't just a musician, but an employer whose employees depended on for their income.This film is ominous without the benefit of foresight, it's a warning without being preachy, it is what it is because they did not know what was to happen next. It ends on a happy note, an optimistic one of Avicii finally getting his way. Shots of beautiful beaches where Avicii can relax and play in the sand, where he can make music and be himself and vacation, not work to make the music for someone else's vacation. The film was released in late October (2017) and six months later, while on vacation in sunny Oman, he passed away.It is rare that real events (news) would elevate the rating of a film, but in this case it has. The death of Avicii shows that what was shown in this film was real, the stress experienced was real, not exaggerated by the film-maker, that the health consequences were real, not made up or exaggerated by either side (not Avicii trying to get out of obligations or by the director wanting to make the film better.)The thing that this film has that other films (made after Avicii's death) won't have is that it wanted to capture the life of Avicii and tell a story, not a money-grab by people trying to capitalize on his death. There will be more documentaries about Avicii, surely, but their motives and the timing will be suspect.I recommend this film for everyone, not just fans of Avicii/EDM.
