When I saw the trailer for this movie, I got very intrigued. I realized I don't know much about Madonna, before she went solo, so I definitely wanted to see this title.
It is not the best documentary you will ever see, but it is interesting as it is a mix of the standard documentary format and some reconstructed scenes from Madonna's life. The girl they chose for Madonna's role is a complete doppelganger and really well does her part.
The movie features interviews with different people from the early Madonna's life and there are some pretty interesting points they show. The best thing in the movie are however some super early features of home recordings of Madonna talking to then her boyfriend and some very early Madonna punk songs (yes, punk). I was extremely interested to hear those. There are some very early videos as well (not music videos). And now I realize why she was never a punk star - while some songs were not bad, her voice never sounded well with punk music. It was always meant for pop-music, so she is now exactly where she must be.
What I like is that the movie is overall very positive from beginning to the end. For Madonna's fans - a must-see!
