Critics Consensus

Satirizing Brat Summer and the pitfalls of pop stardom, The Moment is a mockumentary that could've used sharper barbs, but Charli XCX acquits herself well as a presence that can bind even an unwieldy movie together.

Through celebrity cameos, a succinct yet riveting story, earnest emotion, and biting humor, Charli XCX's mockumentary captures something real about the battle of art versus commerce.

It all contributes to the impression that Charli herself may be growing sick of her brat era, which she ultimately bids goodbye with considerable cheek.

The Charli XCX mockumentary "The Moment" is a satire that feels like a snuff film.

[Charli XCX's] self-referential turn as a fictionalized version of the persona she created may be her biggest stroke of genius yet.

8/10

Where The Moment truly succeeds is in its commitment to humour and self-awareness. The jokes land because the film never pushes beyond its limits and has a ton of fun within the structure its afforded.

I appreciated where it was trying to go. It just didn’t get there for me. Probably more enjoyable for younger than 60 audiences lol.

A hot mess, truly. Nothing substantial happens in the film all- it’s completely disconnected- with little to no plot. Skip it.

A complete waste of a couple of video chips. Obviously Bezos is sucking up to the trumps . He wants those government contracts to continue forever.
