Rachel Cooke New Statesman 10/23/2017
The film wanted for grit, and for context. Where we needed Johnny Marr, we got only James Corden. Where we could have done with a Simon Reynolds-style figure, we had to make do with a nodding Mark Ronson. Go to Full Review

For all of Freedom: George Michael I just didn't know what I was watching. Go to Full Review
Spencer Kornhaber The Atlantic 10/23/2017
The documentary's heavy emphasis on the early-to-mid '90s has the marked feel of someone taking stock of their memories and curating their desired legacy. Which, of course, is the prerogative of an authorized, posthumous, hour-and-a-half documentary. Go to Full Review

Freedom Uncut’s biggest reveal is just how influential Michael was. When the opening credits feature both Kate Moss and a cover from Adele, you know you’re talking about someone who has made an impact. Go to Full Review

George Michael: Freedom - Director's Cut, Michael offers an intimate, honest look at his life, ending just before the iconic singer's shocking death at just 53 in December 2016. Go to Full Review
Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) 06/28/2018
[Viewers are] familiar with the art of doing several things at the same time; in this case, wiggling the shoulders to a beat while padding down memory lane, totting up how many terrific songs Michael had written and performed. Go to Full Review

An absolute must for his true fans. See more Marc Z @TKDLife 04/13/2023 This movie could not help me to think of how much has changed since George Michael was famous and ended up depressed and suicidal. The world is a more inviting place and on the artistic side seems to be more open and accepting of all alternative lifestyles. This was a deeply talented and sensitive man whose life ended too soon. This film shows some great footage of his talent. It is a decent documentary- not fantastic from a. Filmmaking standpoint, but good. The interviews are personal. The archived and news footage are good. I was never a huge fan of Wham! Or George Michael, but it kept me interested and entertained. Some great interviews with the likes of Ricky Gervais, Kate Moss, George Michael, himself, Naomi Campbell, David Corden, and more. See more Read all reviews
