Criss is a star. His talent is remarkable. I've seen him in a range of shows, and become more impressed each time. His rang of talent is shockingly broad LaBelle should never have been on the show. Even with the producers providing softball setups, she struggled. Her voice is still amazing, but she has virtually no knowledge of music made in the past two decades, or more. The other two were filler. Porter was over-the-top "theatrical". Even if this is his real personality, it's annoying. Hyland's voice was forgettable. Her cutesy personality is adorable, of course, but pales in comparison to almost every other performer who has appeared on this series. I hope this weak episode, other than Criss' appearance and contribution, is an exception.

A friend told me about this. It's not a topic I would normally find interesting, but I was mesmerized from the first scene. Its homespun, down-home interviews with a professional film crew and engaging set of stories, along with plenty of scenes giving tastes of how very, very hard this event is. Unlike so many documentaries that get dull with an oppressive amount of detail and back-story, the film doesn't show you everything and tell you everything. This is a good thing. It left me wanting to know more, but feeling good with what the film delivered. I couldn't find one flaw with the film, and plenty of extras I didn't expect.
