    Fyre Fraud is a little zippier and pop culture-y in its skewering [than Netflix's Fyre].

    [Fyre Fraud] immediately declares Fyre to have been the defining nonevent at the intersection of social-media illusion and bricks-and-mortar realities, which is a perfectly reasonable premise, but a less than wieldy one. The results are scattershot, and less cinematically satisfying than Mr. Smith’s elegantly constructed takedown.

    Fyre Fraud, despite its efforts to go after the larger picture, ends up being a frothier and more light-hearted affair, replete with stock photo and cartoon cutaways overlaid with jaunty music cues, overemphasizing the absurdity Fyre has the confidence to know is hardwired into its narrative. [But it is] a helpful reminder that, like so many stories, one account can’t contain the whole truth.
