Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé

What a testament to the power of positivity! There is a scene in the last 15 minutes with everyone moving in unison with Beyoncé leading. To orchestrate, choreograph and direct that scene alone would be daunting, but everyone kept it up throughout their 90 minute live performance, Perfectly flawless performances by all - and gotta give props to the visionary behind it all. Thank you for setting a great example for those interested in the performing arts.

This is a very nicely made capture of the Beyonce Coachella experience. It does not really have much behind the scenes content. I finished at least half.

I wanted more of the journey to the stage that was promised. Much of this film is just the performance itself. However it is a very good performance, with great images, editing, and sound. It seems Beyonce really played a key role in getting it all to come together to come across in the way she lived it. She had her crew really capture all that sound of the stomping on the bleachers for example. All of the editing looks very kinetic too.

It's an inspiring performance with a lot of powerful female sexual energy, a lot of deep heartbreak and fury in the lyrics about love affairs and emotional affairs and cheating. As brutally honest as the lyrics are, implied to be about Jay-Z, the concert also features him in the show. I think it must have been a great moment on stage.

I'm not particularly a Beyonce fan but I was impressed with the concert and its production and artistry. I did think as a documentary it was very light on all the other parts that usually go into a making of video. Maybe there was more in the second half. I don't know. I understand how others might consider the content that was included a bit too high brow. I wish there was more that could've been shown. But honestly it's a remarkable performance.

Just because she is celebrating her heritage and black culture, does not mean she hates white people . . . This movie shows all the hard work that goes into creating an epic performance. Kudos to everyone involved in its production.

Between her fans giving 10 stars to this, and haters giving only 1, there is me who knows a few of her songs, but never even listen to one entire Beyoncé's album.

I stand with a 7 star review and I'll tell you why.

Everybody got to admit that this production deserved to be recorded. This is just a concert, a Coachella concert, but Beyoncé put an effort on it beyond precedents!!

That's it guys!! You can not expect a concert she could give on a Tour. Don't expect either some serious and well behaved perfomance, simply because her music is not like that. Yes, you'll see a lot of cursing and sexual dancing, angry expressions and political positions... if you don't like this, than you don't like her music! And if don't like her music, why the hell would you watch her show expecting to like it? IT DOESNT MAKE ANY SENSE.

I believe that most of the people giving 1 star is actually judging Beyoncé musically and personally. Not the film.

I really enjoyed her performance specially when in comparison to other artists perfomance on Coachella.

The only problem i see here, it's because Netflix promoted this as a documentary, and this is not it. This is just a concert, with a few backstage scenes!! So if you watched lady's Gaga's "five foot two", and thought this would be similar... forget about it! The film is just like those DVDs we used to buy at the supermarket with a concert of our favorite artist... and then played it at home once we were having a dinner party.

THATS IT AND ITS GOOD just good

Go ahead and watch it with the right expectations.

It's a kinetic cut of Beyoncé's Coachella performance intercut with a glimpse of her creative process, her hard-work and intention, and her work-life balance.

We also get short interludes with the performers who played and danced alongside her in the show.

Do I wish we could've gotten more interviews with her creative team, maybe hear about what they put into the show? Sure.

Am I mad about what we did get with Homecoming? Absolutely not.

Other artists put out concert videos, but Beyonce truly put out a film. She took something that most of us experienced through static livestream and cellphone videos and social media reactions and she made it come alive again like we were right there with her.

It's a snapshot, a moment in time adorned with her hopes and influences. It's a gorgeous record of a masterful production.
