A fantastic and respectful invitation into the heart of a very private man. Some of the reviews here are weirdly negative, and I don't think the film deserves that. So I want to counter them with an urge that you watch.
I loved George Michael (as a Brit I concur with James Corden's statement that GM was woven into the fabric of UK life for those of us who grew up there in the 80s and 90s) and know all his music so well. So of course it was hard not to sing and dance along! I appreciate the focus on the music, the life behind the songwriting, and the sensitivity and humor the filmmakers lent to the overall.
It's a love story, a legacy film to a man who brought so much joy to the world.

This is a pretty poor excuse for a documentary unfortunately. The film breezes through his early career only to grind to a screeching halt covering his career in the early 90s as it spends forever on obscure album tracks that don't really tell us much about the man.
There's an interesting story about a highly influential artist in here, but this documentary does not deliver it.

I'm a big George Michael fan. But this wasn't a particularly well made documentary. If you knew nothing about George beforehand then I'm sure this doc would suffice. But for fans this doc wasn't interesting to watch. What ruined this doc the most was the constant interspersed interviews and comments from his celebrity friends who kept vomiting out notes like a Wikipedia article or online fan club.
There was some good George voiceover as he commented on his career as it played out in the doc. But, again, a lot of the voiceover came from his celebrity friends who just glazed him the entire time and it was boring to hear.
The doc rushed through his early years with WHAM! And went straight into his solo career which was disappointing.
Overall, the doc wasn't engaging and was boring in general.

I really adore George Michael as a Songwriter and much more as a singer because of his immaculate and compelling voice. I am a fan since the first Wham album. When I watched it, I felt I am looking a commercial more than a documentary. Wham was a snippet as much as the interesting part of his first band, where there were close to no songs presented. They could have, but they did not want to, as much as they do not release his unreleased Legacy. Fans already knew 100% of the informations given by this documentary, so what's the point? The point was to find more buyers for the already released songs. Compare the publication of his Legacy to like Prince's. Huge difference and made for the fans a 100%. Everything GM Estate brings out has already been released. A very conservative and fans unfriendly handling on all his legacy by them is fact. There were fails in his career not shown and unexplained like the Trojan Horse session. Where is Andrew? I disliked the interviews much. Where are the critic voices? Ricky Gervais made me laugh as ever but did not fit in as much as the others did not too. When Ricky said he was a good actor I remembered George in Little Britain immediately with his bad performance. He was a bad actor for sure but exactly this has shown clearly, they only wanted to show what was good during his career and praise the snippets. They did not know him much either and you can feel it. The estate is a shame.. All I know now is, he could not live up the pressure of the music industry like Madonna, Prince and Jackson and he could not release/compose like 20% as much music, but compares himself with those big names like there was no difference at all. They did work hard for their fans compared to George and this is the feeling left after this documentary. Very sad.
It's very good! 😀
I'd recommend it 👍🏼
Although it drags a little towards the end, this documentary is both informative and inspiring. 🎶 D
His Final Work.
