lois-lane33 I think that Katy Perry is about "girl empowerment"-that is to say I think she wants girls to be proud of themselves-and teenage girls as well-so instead of doing what everybody else does- she is an original who is not like the other female singers out there whose are mostly about 'being a Femme Fatale.' Britney Spears even named one of her albums 'Femme Fatale.' Most young women would rather be themselves and have fun than pretend to be some kid of "ultimate female" or 'Femme Fatale.' (some people define a Femme Fatale as a woman who by virtue of her good looks lures men into dangerous situations-but I think it means a woman who is all about being the focus of every mans attention) I think KP appeals to the group of young women who don't take themselves too seriously which I think is a good thing. I am a fan of many different types of music and I like to hear about how someone decided to do what they do in music. This film had plenty of material that gives a look into the life of the performer and why she does what she does. I think attempting a tour that lasted forever probably contributed to her marital problems- which were sad to see in the film. Her positive attitude is contagious and her voice is often surprisingly good in terms of what she is capable of doing sonically when she really gets going. There isn't much talent out there in the music biz today so I think its good to see someone who has got singing talent and I like her crazy costumes-not 'totally nuts' like Lady Gaga-just colorful and playful-which makes her shows fun & sexy.

happy63616-734-522226 I wouldn't say I'm a "fan" of Katy Perry but I do like her music. I was curious to see into the world of Katy Perry. I watched the Beyonce documentary last year and found that to be quite self absorbed and pretentious. Katy's movie wasn't anything like that. She includes her fans in the movie and there are no selfies. There's just her doing what she does. The middle of the movie does focus a little on her divorce to Russell. She started the movie before the divorce, but it's easy to see why people think she's trying to cash in on it. It was quite emotional seeing her experience raw emotion and exhaustion. It was nice to see she's a normal girl with a great songwriting talent. I also noticed she has a little bit of a tummy, but that made me relate more to her and realise she is just a human being like me. It was nice to see a celeb not airbrushed and makeup free. Exposed. After seeing this I wouldn't want to go see Katy on tour (turns out she's a terrible dancer!), but I enjoyed watching it. I love it when she says to the audience "Thank you for believing in my weirdness".

T1 Brit There are some very miserable spiteful reviews on here. They usually contain such revelations as 'I don't like Katy Perry's music and hated this movie'. Er... what are you doing watching a film about Katy Perry if you don't like Katy Perry's music. I know, you came to be bored and to dislike it and you succeeded. The film contains a very revealing and surprising story about a genuinely gifted songwriter breaking out of her strict religious upbringing and rising to the very highest peak that anybody could possibly wish for. She did it through shear determination and spirit. She did not get it handed to her. She was in fact jerked around by all the record companies and almost sunk until, in one memorable quote, one of the young female execs stole her music from the company and 'snuck out' with it, so that she would be free to find success at another label which had people of some imagination and vision instead of the lame egotistical dicks that she was tied to at that time. Her message is absolutely positive, absolutely empowering and liberating for young girls, and the concert footage shows just how transcendent that message becomes for them at the live shows. She is not sleazy or nasty or stupid. If I had a daughter I would strongly approve of her being a 'Katy cat'. I enjoyed every minute of this documentary. Those who hated it are most likely sad old men or jealous bitches. I reckon.

Judy G believe me, I thought Katy Perry was just like any other pop singers that only sing for money and fame. I was wrong.the documentary shows how she got to be one of the best and most popular pop singers nowadays, her love life, her career life, her hard work, her ups and downs and etc. and I promise you that as you watch along, you will not be only be able to get to learn important life lessons from her, but also how to look at life from her perspective, a whole new perspective. it is also fun to watch, totally worth your time, you can maybe get teary if you are emotional (like me). 10/10.
