Chris Willman

Variety

A film that does little besides create the impression that the 22-year-old superstar has led a charmed life - an assurance that may reassure Mendes' very youngest fans but won't draw in anyone not already raptly caught in his spell.

When it was done, I wasn't sure I had watched anything at all.

I, for one, was hoping there'd be more behind the curtain.

[In Wonder] feels like little more than a carefully cultivated PR stunt and extended advertisement extended advertisement for Mendes' upcoming album Wonder.

Shawn Mendes: In Wonder showed me what he wanted me to see, but guess what? It turns out, that's exactly what I wanted to see too.

Celluloid Dreams

Another calculated, carefully curated puff piece about a pop star trapped in their gilded cage.

I generally like Shawn Mendes, he seems nice and has some fun songs. But watching the behind-the-scenes footage showed just how self-centered he is which was disappointing. He came off as bratty, incredibly immature, and off-putting.

i had way higher expectations for this documentary considering it's shawn mendes. it felt so fabricated and controlled. there's a scene where he must cancel a concert because he's sick and it was so overdramatic. it was the most interesting part of the film. camila is just randomly there and that felt so fake even those most people have already assumed they're a fake couple. overall, the documentary gave me no in depth feel of shawn's personal life and just showed me how boring he is. to sum it up, all i learned about was about his anxiety for the millionth time and his relationship with camila... for the millionth time.

A compelling and insightful exploration of the life of celebrated musician Shawn Mendes, that will ultimately satisfy die-hard fans but casual audiences will find it unremarkable and very average.
