Chronicle of pop sensation Katy Perry's life, both on-stage and off. Billed as a "backstage pass, front row seat and intimate look". More

From her humble Christian up-bringing to her divorce from actor/comedian Russell Brand, this documentary follows Perry's long road to stardom. She released her first album - under her real name Katy Hudson - in 2001 which bombed, and went through four record labels before finally hitting the big time in 2008 with her One of the Boys album and the single I Kissed a Girl. Since then she has become the only artist to spend over 52 consecutive weeks in the US Billboard top 10 and sold 11 million albums worldwide. Hide

It can be difficult justifying the existence of a concert movie based on a pop-music phenomenon. Some can draw in an audience by filming performances that celebrate an artist’s passion for their craft (This Is It) while others blindly beat a dead cash-cow with a piñata stick (Glee: The 3D Concert Movie). Fortunately, Part of Me is more a case of the former instead of feeling like the latter. More

Katy Perry’s rather uninteresting success story isn’t exactly feature-length material, and the film knows this. Instead, her origin is glanced over in favour for what really matters: Katy’s relationship with her followers. These moments exemplify the pop-star’s dedication to supporting her fans, leading to a particularly touching moment in São Paulo that showed how the fans are able to do the same for her. It’s a shame the film doesn’t give us an insight into the gruelling creative processes that bring Perry’s sugar-coated fantasy to life, for this could’ve added to the audience’s understanding of the tremendous pressure the pop-star was under on tour.

Performances are smoothly integrated into the narrative, working in context with the behind-the-scenes material. The high visual quality of the concert footage is matched by the equally superb sound. In combination with the impressive 3D, these segments exude the energy of a live show. Although I couldn’t call myself a fan of Perry’s music, I was captivated by her bluesy-jazz rendition of I Kissed A Girl.

Part of Me is an extremely well-made concert documentary that fans are going to indulge in, packed with high energy, basic morals and an infectious charm, much like Perry herself. Hide
