Screenwise Verdict

Look, this is what it is: a glossy, promotional concert doc for Justin Bieber fans. The ratings tell the whole story—critics gave it a shrug (57% RT, 5.0 IMDb), while fans loved it (86% audience score). It's safe, it's positive, it shows some work ethic and dedication, but it's not breaking any new ground.

If your kid is a Belieber, they'll enjoy the behind-the-scenes access and personal moments. If they're not, this will feel like sitting through someone else's vacation slideshow. There's some mild value in seeing how a major performance comes together during COVID restrictions, but that's about it.

Bottom line: harmless fan service that won't teach your kid much or inspire creativity, but also won't rot their brain or expose them to anything questionable. It's the documentary equivalent of a participation trophy—everyone involved tried hard, but the end result is pretty forgettable.

Age Fit

Best for tweens and teens who are already Justin Bieber fans (ages 10-16). Adults won't find much here unless they're die-hard Beliebers. The Common Sense Media age 10+ rating seems right—it's safe and inoffensive, just not particularly interesting to non-fans.

WISE Breakdown

Wholesome

Behind-the-scenes documentary showing dedication and work ethic during pandemic challenges. Features positive relationship moments with wife Hailey. Tone is generally upbeat and encouraging, though it's essentially a promotional piece celebrating a celebrity without much depth or complexity. Models perseverance and teamwork in mounting a show under difficult circumstances.

Imaginative

Standard concert documentary format with little creative innovation. Shows the technical process of staging a rooftop performance, which has some interest, but doesn't invite viewer creativity or exploration. It's a straightforward promotional doc that documents rather than inspires—you watch Bieber's team build a stage, but there's nothing particularly original or thought-provoking about the approach.

Safe

Common Sense Media rates it for age 10+. No significant content warnings based on available data. Concert documentary format is inherently low-risk—no violence, gore, or inappropriate content expected. Some mild language possible in behind-the-scenes moments, but generally clean for a celebrity doc. The 57% critic score suggests it's bland rather than edgy.

Enriching

Limited educational or growth value—this is fan service first and foremost. Does show the work that goes into mounting a live performance during COVID restrictions, which has some merit. Personal moments between Bieber and Hailey offer glimpses into relationship dynamics, but the 5.0 IMDb and 46 Metacritic scores suggest it's pretty superficial. Entertainment value is narrow: if you're a Belieber, you'll enjoy it; if not, it's skippable.
