This is more of a behind the scenes of Astroworld with a bunch of live performances clip. It doesn't really tells us much we didn't know before, so don't expect that.
However, if you like him this is very entertaining.

No amount of research went into this movie whatsoever. I just feel like they had a bunch of backstage footage and decided to pay someone to wrap it up and call it a documentary.

This behind-the-scenes promotional vehicle is illuminating to see how Scott and his entourage behave, their values, and and the challenges disenfranchised people endure in the US, and how money plays a fundamental role in their society.
The "documentary" describes Scott as a "superstar", but I had never heard of him at all until I decided to watch this. Lacked a purpose other than to aggrandize its subject.

It still lacks so much entertainment and includes a lot of repetitive scenes like jumping of the stage etc but there is a strong motivational message that should be spread out and shared tbh
The documentary was at it's best on showing the up's and down's and there was a massive energy bursting from these scenes but still maybe it wasn't delivered the right way.
I decided to watch to gain an understanding of how lack of talent leads to American stardom.
It is presented to appeal to technology induced ADHD viewers with roaming camera, unintelligible dialogue and an obscene display of celebrity wealth.
This documentary unintentionally presents many things. It is a study on the decline of popular culture and music for profit, narcissistic personality disorder of the main character, and the corruption of teenage cult followers spoon fed garbage disguised as musical artistry. Travis is their oxygen.
I came away with an uninspired understanding about this man boy who can suck the air out of a room better than a Hoover vacuum. He has perhaps 24 words in his entire vocabulary. He is the King of auto tune mixed with pyrotechnics and crowd surfing. That sums up his entire act.
Little substance here. His lyrics sound like they are written by a toddler. He is superficial, vacuous, untalented, uninteresting, unappealing, cannot sing or dance, cannot play an instrument. He is a stage fraud.
He is incredibly lucky. He is a wealthy American male. Perhaps one day he shall be President.

This movie was a big disapointment. Instead of giving us an indepth view of Travis Scotts artistic and musical development throughout the years, it gives us a mix of concert footage with kids going bunkers and a couple of randomly selected highligts of the last couple of years of his career.
I would definitly not recommend this movie to anyone. If you really want to learn about Travis Scott, spend 10 minutes on wikipedia instead of this "documentary".

It's not really a documentary, it's more like behind the scenes cimpilation plus concert highlights. This is something in his style and if you're a fan I am sure you will like it. If you aren't, than you shouldn't watch it because as I said, this is not an ordinary documentary.

I was really curious to see this documentary but I really felt that there wasn't a story and direction. Everything is random. At least 20 videos of dudes jumping. Too random.
A behind the scenes artistic film which follows Travis Scott and shows quite a lot of behind the scenes of his tour, interaction with fans, his dedication, family and life. While it's showing the behind the scenes of the tour it time to time switches to clips of him being young and reflecting of things and places from earlier in his life.
As someone who has heard about him a little bit and has heard his music a little bit it gave me a great insight about what his all about and the comunity of fans and the world he has created around it all. It was quite interesting to see his offstage character and values which at the end of the day made me appréciate all the hard work which goes on behind the scene to create his art.
Overall pretty good.
If your a fan you'll probably love it just because there's lots of footage of Travis. If your looking for a good documentary it's terrible. Horribly put together, and more like a promo for stage diving than anything that gives you a meaningful insight into who he is. I'd hoped to understand why so many fans love him but was left none the wiser by this as he seems to be devoid of talent and successful because of who he colabs with, who he's dating and the producers of his tracks who do a great job laying down big beats with his heavily synthesised voice mumbling mostly lyrics a school child would do better over it. In interviews he talks about being an inspiration but nothing in his lyrics or lifestyle are of any true inspiration unless your sole goal is to be rich which is both shallow and sad
Big Travis Scott fan but this is garbage. Just random clips with no cohesive narrative. Too many clips of children saying how fantastic he is after one of his shows. Many references to being an inspiration but no insight as to how or why. Boring.

To show Travis as artist develop over the years, to become a father, to become a mentor, and the inspiration he is, is show remarkably in this documentary. A perfect way to show anyone the making and influence of the new generation of hip-hop.

That's all really, there's not much depth to this so called documentary. I discovered Travis Scott cannot form a sentence without swearing, he is full of grandiose, loves his own music more than anyone else in the room (a lot of jumping, head bopping and crab hands/fingers), and doesn't genuinely care about fans getting squashed in the crowds (he regularly puts them in dangerous situations to fulfil his ego).

This documentary touched my heart. From the flashbacks of Travis coming full circle with Stormi to Travis story from rock bottom to worldwide superstar, this documentary hit all the right notes in terms of getting you emotional, and making you love Travis even more than you did before. Recommend if you are a Travis fan or if you wanna see a great story of his prominence to stardom.

I love hip hop and whilst admittedly I am not a huge Travis fan, I will always watch anything about hip hop.
This documentary is basically following him around with flash back footage slotted in. A lot of the filming is grainy (and I don't meant the flashback stuff) and poor audio. I assume it's meant to have that old school feel... But it's sort of annoying to watch so much grainy footage.
When I watch a documentary on an artist, I want substance, I want insight into their music abilities. In this doco you get lots of concert footage with people throwing themselves offstage. You get footage of him recording. But you don't get actual meaningful insight into travis or his creative process.
I'm sure teenage fans will love this documentary. I wanted to like it and admire that Travis is an extremely hard worker and amazing to his fans. But that doesn't correlate into an interesting documentary for me.

Fire. So good. Really made me like La Flame more. Sad to not see any behind the scenes off DBR or Rodeo and only 3 min of Kanye but either way great. I cried 3 times, not capping.
Nothing informative,took clippings from his concerts and i don't know why people wer jumping into the crowd during the whole documentary

Shows how he unites so many like-minded people and they all forget about what they have going on in their life to just rage.

I was honestly trying to give this a watch but it's literally all over the place. No structure at all and there aren't many scenes with Kylie and the baby. Ugh, if u have absolutely nothing else to watch then perhaps you can use this to pass the time or just background noise.

This is nothing like å documentary. It's just about this mans love for hun self and Fame. He can't really sing, he truly showed us that in the scene were he is in the studio. All is autotuned to death. He is just jumping around, smoking weed. This is poorly done.

The documentary has no structure to it, it's just footage from his shows from the past year. I would've wished it had some depth, but the film is very flat. If you don't know a lot about Travis, you'll be very confused watching it. It feels like they assumed you already know everything about him.
You basically get thrown back and forth between shows and events, like Super Bowl and the birth of his daughter, and at the same time showing clips of him as a kid (drawing parallel lines from his present, to his past.)
It's not a good documentary, but it's a full of cool visuals and footage. See for yourself!

Best documentary after Beyonce homecoming I wasn't a fan at first but now that I see inside of his life I'm officially a ranger love love the documentary
I'll admit I'm not a fan of Travis Scott or his music, but I watched (most of) the documentary anyways, hoping to get some insights about him as a person, his life, and his music. I got none of this. This documentary is made of some cell-phone footage pasted together, concert/fan shots, and random BTS shots of him making the record. There was no meat to this documentary, nor was there a story to tell or anything interesting shared about him as a person. Really disappointed.
