Stephen Romei The Australian This is a visually powerful, emotionally draining documentary. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 14, 2018 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald McQueen's great legacy is the beauty and skill that lay beneath the compulsion to outrage. Rated: 4/5 Sep 14, 2018 Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au What keeps McQueen from being a brilliant doco is its willingness to skim over the darkest parts of the designer's life. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 8, 2018 Full Review Michael Cuby them. McQueen is a stunning ode to everything Alexander managed to do while he was still alive. Be prepared to cry. Sep 28, 2022 Full Review Taylor Baker Drink in the Movies Episode 14: Doc Talk Rated: 70/100 Sep 1, 2021 Full Review Ben Turner The Pink Lens The filmic quality of this journey is striking, making for a documentary as engaging as any dramatic biopic.

Joe P I'm not interested in most fashion designing, but Alex McQueen's an enigma. I was hooked from beginning to end. Brilliant. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/24 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant from start to finish, I've seen this serval times. It not only shows McQueens work but explains it in such a beautiful way. My issue was a few of the people being interviewed didn't add much to the film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member MCQUEEN GREATEST OF ALL TIME. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review s r An interesting introduction to an influential designer that I had not known much about. It made me understand the fashion world a little better. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member What a special person. It hurt to see this. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A touching glimpse into the life of Alexander McQueen. For those who don't know much about the late fashion designer, this will provide you with an eye-opener into the highs and lows of his world and of the fashion industry. Intimate, tragic and mesmerising. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
