David W Fyre offers an entertaining and intriguing look into one of the 2010s' most notorious events. As a film, Fyre is engrossing. As a documentary, it elevates awareness of the event and brings the personal cost to normal, working class vendors and influencers to light. I would definitely watch this again. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/24 Full Review Gareth v A good doco on the mess that was the Fyre festival. Did have a good chuckle about some of the people getting scammed by a post from a C grade celebrity on instagram though. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/23 Full Review J M This documentary shows how greed and criminal energy will screw those who are hard working and at least partially honest. After watching this documentary I was thinking by myself: "Why on earth haven't he just launched a series of parties (like the promo shot) with all those spoiled rich kids and gather a metric ton of money for charging extraordinary amounts for entry and drinks…" What could have been more portrayed throughout the doc, are the Bahamian people who got screwed over. Which brings me to the next point: where is is solidarity with those poor souls?

Well, you didn't already know that answers, after watching this film you'll know that social media is FULL of fake personalities pulling in gullible dupes. "Fire" presents a fascinating behind the scenes look at the creation, selling, and rollout of the infamous Fyre music festival. The audience knows from the start of the impending disaster, but it is an absolute train wreck you can't turn away from. There are pretty much red flags everywhere it was not going to end well and that it was all smoke and mirrors. What was being sold to on social media to trick "influencers" and other dupes into buying expensive tickets for the sham festival showed a completely different reality. That's the subtext of the film, the phoniness of social media and its vapid "influencers." Overall, this is a fun Netflix documentary from Chris Smith, the director of "American Movie" (a must see if you haven't seen it) and producer of "Tiger King," that is well worth checking out.
