So firstly, a great documentary. It started off great and he really did come across as a nice guy, and we all know at least one or two of his songs. However,
we know most of that already and this would have been a great opportunity to explain to the audience more of his struggles, how bad were the drugs and drinking what friends were not the right type around him, why did the manager leave and not speak to Tim was it over money and lack of loyalty.
Lastly, although personal but if your doing a documentary we just needed a better understanding of such an early death how bad it really was or was this not explained due to the guilt of the people around him who never done enough.

I cannot possibly write an unbiased review for this. I'm the kind of person who convinced my family to visit Stockholm just to go to the Avicii Experience, who has read Tim's official biography, who owns True, Stories, and Tim on vinyl, along with plenty of merch from the official website. I listen to his music almost every day-he remains one of my most-listened-to artists every year, even after his passing.
As I write this on New Year's Eve, I'm still emotional after crying my eyes out watching Avicii: I'm Tim on its release date. The ending completely broke my heart. This documentary deserves to be seen alongside Netflix's other release today, My Last Show, which features some of his most successful and well-known songs.
We may never truly understand what was going through his mind, but he left us with a powerful message in his final songs and lyrics. Tracks like "SOS," "Hold the Line," and "Ain't a Thing" are deeply emotional and hauntingly beautiful. As he once said after stepping away from touring: "I will never let go of music. I will continue to speak to my fans through it."
Tim, you are deeply missed. I'm so grateful to everyone who made this documentary possible-it's a heartfelt gift to all his fans. The melodies he created are not just music; they're memories of my teenage years and an endless source of inspiration.
I hope everyone enjoys this as much as I did.

I'm not a fan. I like a handful of his songs, but this documentary made me understand the greatness of Avicii and the impact of his music.
I mostly enjoy rock and soul music. After watching this documentary, the creativity of this young man truly resonated with me and completely changed my perspective on his music.
But most importantly, it showed his pure soul and how his music truly came from the heart.
I'm a relatively older man, and the mindset of this young guy made me reflect deeply and wipe the tears from my face.
Whenever I listen to his music, I'll remember that I need to become a better person.

My only glaring observation is this documentary didn't go deep enough. It needed more exploration, more explanation and just more..... It never really climaxed and we're not learning anything new here that wasn't already known through the internet; Really disappointed to be honest. It did nothing for me.
It did a good job, however of documenting Tim's climb, but not so much his downfall, making the documentary a bit one sided. Maybe I was just expecting something more comprehensive? I'm not sure what they were trying to achieve with making this documentary. Was it just an intention to only shed light on his music career and portray him in that light? That's what it seems like to me.

This movie is really moving to tears, especially the ending. I can tell you. What it tells you about what was important for those who cared about Tim as much as the closest person. With his music, he helped many people see life in colors again, overcome difficult situations and obstacles and just smile. After watching this movie, I began to see the full depth of his inner state, which he translated into his music, and in fact, this fact is sad, because we hadn't seen it before and couldn't help Tim at the time. I would like to thank everyone who was involved in the creation of this film in one way or another, thank you for honoring the memory of this great man in this way and helping many of his fans get to know him better!
