Here's the deal: this is a beautiful concert special featuring one of the greatest voices of our time, singing deeply personal songs about divorce, motherhood, and starting over. If you or your teen are Adele fans, it's lovely. The vocals are stunning, the setting is gorgeous, and there are some genuinely touching moments.
But let's be real—it's also kind of a slog if you're not already invested. The critics gave it 28% on RT for a reason: it's slow, it's emotionally heavy, and it's basically 90 minutes of sitting and listening to someone sing sad songs. There's no story, no variety, just performance.
For tweens and teens dealing with their own big feelings, or who love music and want to see what world-class artistry looks like, this could be meaningful. For everyone else? Probably skip it. The WISE score reflects that it's safe, well-executed, and emotionally mature—but it's also pretty niche and not exactly riveting viewing for most families.
