    I think I enjoyed the film more than the live concert!

    Having attended the Renaissance World Tour in May, I wasn't sure whether I would watch Renaissance: A Film By Beyonce but then I remember how much I enjoyed the Homecoming documentary on Netflix. Not only did I watch it in the end, but I saw it from the balcony of Cineworld's Superscreen which boasts an incredible wall to wall screen, immersive Dolby Atmos sound and two floors which made feel like I was in the a stadium all over again but a little closer and with better sound. This was the perfect screen to soak up a 2 hour and 48 minute spectacle.

    Firstly, reliving the performances on the big screen was amazing. Viewers feel Beyonce's energy up close and personal as well as that of her dancers, many of whom have become recognisable names and faces over the years. We also see close shots of fan reactions and sometimes see the performance from their vantage point which drives home how mesmeric Beyonce's on screen presence has become. The Renaissance 'tourdrobe' is on full display as we flash between difference performances of the same song which allows the audience to revel in the Beyonce's outstanding wardrobe (Uncle Johnny made it). One of the best things about the 'tourdrobe', is that it's easy to recognise the location you attended based on the outfit Beyonce was wearing, if not the stadium architecture. London was easy to spot! Those who didn't attend live will recognise several outfits from viral clips.

    Whilst the performances are stunning and worth the admission price, it's the behind the scenes content and commentary from Beyonce that adds the cherry on top without ever feeling that they were taking away from the show. As per usual, Beyonce sweats over each miniscule detail of the show. She praises everybody from the stage crew to the backing dancers, highlighting how important their role is. The is an emotional segment where we witness Blue Ivy's first performance and its aftermath. This is one of many moments that we get to witness between Beyonce and a family member, friend or tour family. Importantly, Beyonce speaks of the motivation and inspiration for the album. A Renaissance, a new beginning where everybody can and should be comfortable in their own skin.

    This was an entertaining, energetic and insight look into the Renaissance tour.

    An amazing concert film from a unique and novel perspective

    This concert/documentary is one of the best live action-documentary movies I have ever seen. I feel like Beyonce has finally come into her own in regards to directing. Her other project were varying degrees of good but this is well thought out, cohesive piece of work. I love how she interwove so many different aspects of into the movie: Working Mother, Wife, Performer, Woman, Black, LGBTQ+ ally, Injuries, Business owner, Musician, Creative, Leader, etc. It just felt good through and through. She has come a long way from a directorial perspective and it is very nice to see. I hope she continues in this vein. Brava Beyonce!

    Spectacular, beautiful, emotional

    Renaissance: A film by Beyoncé is a spellbinding blend of concert magic and behind-the-scenes documentary charm. It's not just about the music-it's a visual feast that captures the essence of her artistry and life on and off the road.

    The film immerses you in the energy of the record breaking Renaissance World Tour, where Beyoncé's stage presence is nothing short of captivating. But what makes this movie special is the peek into her world offstage. It's a personal journey, not just a concert registration.

    Beyoncé's perfectionism and hard work shine through every frame, from the intricate choreography to the stunning visuals. The documentary elements reveal the challenges and triumphs of her creative process, making the film more than just a fan's delight-it's a celebration of resilience, passion, and the woman behind the icon.

    In essence, Beyoncé's Renaissance World Tour movie is a must-watch for fans and casual viewers alike. It's an emotional rollercoaster that goes beyond the music, leaving you with a deeper appreciation for the artist and her unyielding dedication to her craft.
