Freedom Uncut

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.

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.

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.

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.

Oh precious George. I absolutely adore George Michael. My sister had his albums and I used to enjoy them as a child in the 90s. As an adult I've become quite a fan. I've been lucky enough to see George live and up close. Witnessing George sing 'Praying for Time' with a rising sun behind him; a favourite memory of mine.

I'm so grateful he created this work. I enjoyed it so much, although I could hear a distinct change in his narration. His voice somehow different. I do wonder how he felt in the months before he passed. I hope he was okay.

I was sad to learn of such pain and suffering, especially when he sang the tribute to Freddie Mercury. What a terrible loss George endured.

I was waiting for this documentary to cover his later days. The dark days. It didn't. I'm so glad. It was a beautiful tribute to a truly beautiful man.

We love you George. I remember you as an amazing singer, songwriter and incredible human being.
