Produced by his mother and his manager, the result is an awkward construct that doesn't overlook his violent behavior but occasionally downplays it.

Both fascinating and exasperating.

In the end, you don’t have to buy Onfroy’s redemption, or even the nearness of one, to be affected by the last act.

“Look at Me” is for those who have never heard X, more overview than in-depth examination of the forces that venerated him, which allowed these cycles of abuse to continue

... A vivid, sometimes frustrating portrait of the late rapper constructed out of his own furious take on the social media landscape that helped launch him into the music’s stratosphere.

Watched: 21/05/25 This isn’t just a documentary. This is a legacy. Look at Me proves what we already knew. XXXTENTACION wasn’t just another rapper. He was the voice of a whole generation. Nobody was doing it like X. The pain, the rage, the melodies, the truth. All of it straight from his soul with no filter. The doc goes hard. It shows his whole come-up from nothing. Bro was recording in closets and still sounded better than half the industry. Then Look At Me drops and the internet explodes. He was SoundCloud. He was the blueprint. He made being broken into an art form. It doesn’t sugarcoat anything either. It shows the dark sides. The violence. The court cases. The people he hurt. But it also shows how he tried to change. Grow. Heal. That duality is what made him real. That’s what made him immortal. There will never be another X GOAT status certified LLJ

Eye opening. Shows us more of Jah & the mysteries behind him. He said he wanted us to know who we were looking up to, if not it was pointless. He was still evolving. Impacted many. Well done. *tears falling* Thank you. #LLJ

A movie that shows only the story that XXXTENTACION wants you to see, which is fair, it's his own production. However, for anyone with access to wikipedia, news, etc, you can understand that it's not a true reflection of his life and "drama" surrounding it. Overall, this movie is a pro-XXXTENTACION propaganda that might be interesting for his stans.
