About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like behind-the-scenes music documentaries that mix ambition, pressure, and performance, similar to Searching for Sugar Man or The Devil and Daniel Johnston; Not for you if you want a purely historical deep dive or lots of personal backstory.

Pros: gripping audition tension; inspiring performer stories; entertaining musical moments | Cons: some history feels missing; uneven song focus; limited personal-life detail
