This film shows a remarkably gifted toddler with a pronounced gift for music-making, who pursues his passion for musical performance with determination, passion, grit and optimism. In the process, he becomes a pied piper to mostly young girls, who fawn over his boyish charm and impossibly cute hair. But at bottom, he is a real musician, and a damned good one. The skillfully edited film shows the magnitude of joy that music can bring, even when accompanied by pop boy band production values. I don't much like pop music, and I really don't like young pop stars who are highly produced and thrust into media by the entertainment industry. But I loved this movie, and came away really liking and admiring Justin Bieber. Expand

On the other hand, my 9 year old daughter and all of her friends loved it. As a parent, I was happy to have her watch this movie -- it's clean, inspirational & has a good message for kids. Those of you (most) who hated it probably shouldn't have bothered watching it in the first place. In fact, I wonder if any of the very low scores even watched it and aren't just trying to get the user score down. That would be a shame. Expand

I dont care what ANYONE says, this is a OUTSTANDING movie. The fact he was raised by a single mother in a small town only hanging on by a dream, then making it to where he is now is VERY unlikely. It wasnt just luck. It was Hope, Determination, and Talent. Expand

We did enjoy the movie. It not only showed Justin's rise to stardom but his mother's sacrfices she made to make sure, as a single young mother, he was brought up with values and respect. His grandparents were normal, very much like my daughters, in the respect they kept him grounded. He had to clean his room before he could go out with his friends-didn't matter that he was JUSTIN BEIBER. His grandfather brought me to tears, talking of letting them go, Justin & his mom, to Atlanta to do recordings & start his singing career. I did wonder what Justin's father's intentions really were, never around in any pictures while he was growing up past a few months old...all the credit should go to his mom, grandparents & his crew who loves & adores him. I do wish it would have stayed with him in it's entirety of his songs but his journey thus far was portrayed very nicely. Loved the hair wisp & the part about texting.
I would buy tickets to see him in concert if he came with in 75 miles..went to the Miley/Jonas Brothers concert & we loved that one too.
YOU GO JUSTIN!!!

Got exactly what I expected, a good story about a kid who came from nothing and now is a star. Kid has real talent and isn't just another pop singer. Interesting how social media can now make just about anyone a star.

I have not seen this film and i dont intend to, not because i dont like Justin Bieber, im 23 and his music is not really my thing lol.

However this is just asking for bad reviews being that there are grown men who just sit on youtube watching his videos and just post bad comments towards him, but is that not like saying "I HATE GAY PORN BUT I WATCH IT TO SAY ERRRRR THATS GAY".

Good luck to the kid he started with nothing and has shown his talent to the world nothing wrong with that, yes his music is for a younger group but that dose not make me hate him because of it, so for all the bad reviews and yes there probally all the youtube crowd who have nothing better to do with there time then hate "little kids" im going to give this a 10.

It's not really "theatrical material" -- it doesn't give audiences anything an E channel doc couldn't except 3-D. But overall, it's mildly appealing and tells the story of a star in the making that "never says never".

Personally i dislike his personality and i'm not a fan of his music. But it's early in his career, we don't want a 'documentary' about his life when hes only around 20 years old. I would understand it if he was 61 and the documentary was a flashback on his life. But this was only made so that he could get money off it.
But i don't understand the low rating either, it's directed by high-class movie makers, so i don't think a 1.6 is a fitting verdict.

Who saw that coming? If you're not a fan of Bieber, then don't watch the movie. This is for fans of Bieber, you're clearly not the intended demographic. I mean, this isn't a difficult concept. But of course, people that love Bieber will watch and love this, regardless of how many haters it has.
That being said, I'm not a huge fan, but I have nothing against the guy. I only watched a little bit of the movie randomly one night while waiting for my friends to get online, but I learned some stuff about him that I didn't previously know and it made me respect the kid a little bit more. However, I'm not much into these type of movies, so thats probably why I only watched a little bit, and give it a 7.

It is shiny and soft, but way over-gelled. Take it from me, burn all copies of this movie. It should never be seen again.

I'm sorry for all the nasty words directed at JB I am saying in my head right now, Indigo Sherck

PS- Justin B sounds like a 9 year old girl...

To Justin B: Marcus was right: This is for your own good.
