 Insightful To A Degree! March 30, 2008
*lovelygirl*
This DVD has no performances, no talks with Britney, and no video clips because it was not authorized by Britney or her management. When you watch this documentary don't expect to see entertainment like the ET channel or VH1 Specials. This is more of an in-depth analysis between a panel of people who have studied Britney's music and achievements throughout the years.
There are no mentionings of record sales, or details on stardom except perhaps a few references to her videos, artistic performances and her relationship to Madonna. Some were not too great and others were just effective criticism. Many fans may get offended because Britney wasn't praised or elevated. There were comments regarding the Madonna-Britney French Kiss and Madonna's role in Britney's latest musical re-inventions. Also, it was discussed on how Britney's role has been changing to include older audiences rather than the typical teenagers from her BABY ONE MORE TIME Era.
There are various clips of Britney photos, as well as chats with family neighborhood friends and acquaintances. Lots of talk was done about her hometown and how the city was very small and everybody knew everyone. It is obvious that the small town where she was raised is proud of her accomplishments. Much was said about her childhood years and how she began to pursue her dream even when her parents had declared bankruptcy and were in the verge of loosing everything.
Like I said, this was an in-depth analysis between a panel of people who claim they have studied her life. Larry Getlen was in the documetary and mentioned Britney's transformations from the cute American girl to the sexy diva goddess that men of all ages drool over. He has a book out titled NOT THAT INNOCENT that may be of interest to some readers or fans.
Britney was compared to Madonna, Marilyn Monroe and other famous celebrities. There were repetitive talks about whether Britney will be "as famous" years from now. Furthermore, there were comments regarding how Britney's personal life may affect her long hard work by perhaps slowing it down to a degree [this was before the Kevin Federline fiasco]. One commentator mentioned how Britney needs a strong ballad like Christina's BEAUTIFUL or Robbie Williams ANGELS to make her mark. Further remarking that Britney needed to have her music stand the test of time by making her songs more like her first album or like her single TOXIC.
On the whole, when I watched this I was not pleased with the overall style. The talks were very long, with no worthwhile intermissions and it seemed like it was just too dull. If you are into having fun, or entertainment then this is not for you. But if you like to criticize, analyze, and just observe the comments of how other people see Britney this will be of interest.

This is just a collection of interviews of a few unknown industry "insiders" making comments on what any fan already knows. There are only a few minutes of clips of Britney, nothing new here either. You would expect to find a DVD of this quality in the $3.99 Clearance bin. Save your money for REAL Britney concert and music DVDs, you will see better news stories about her on Access Hollywood or Entertainment Tonight.
