Roxana Hadadi Punch Drunk Critics Katy Perry: Part of Me is a commercial, not a diary entry -- and it sticks, far too often, to an already-decided-upon script. Rated: 2/5 Jan 9, 2017 Full Review Austin Chronicle Rated: 2/5 Jul 7, 2012 Full Review Dana Stevens Slate We're left with zero sense of what she's really like as a granddaughter, sister, boss, or friend. Jul 6, 2012 Full Review Mara Reinstein Billboard While Part of Me reveals a number of personal moments, the most endearing are the silly ones... Jan 26, 2024 Full Review Andrew Todd Birth.Movies.Death. Like fans at a concert, the movie and its audience are a feedback loop of shrieking adoration for a figure who's probably tired of them. And hot diggity damn, is it riveting to watch. Sep 1, 2019 Full Review Micheal Compton Bowling Green Daily News I'll concede it all probably went down easier for me because I'm a fan of her work, but I think this is a good enough that you don't have to know any of her music to appreciate her story.

This is so shallow and horrible Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/04/24 Full Review Xavier R Hermosa, como todo lo que hace Katy 💋💋💋 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/24 Full Review Andres C O documentário nos traz a parte humana da Katy, onde o artista fora das câmeras também uma vida pessoal e as mesmas frustações que nós. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review CS P Para um filme sobre turnê, é agradável. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review jonathan d This is a good movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/20/24 Full Review Blue G This movie is so touching, i can feel her pain and what she had gone through.
