The movie’s presentation of her whole personhood adds sweetness to the spectacle, and drives home the outro of “My House,” a thumping new Beyoncé track that plays under the credits: “Pick me up even if I fall/ Let love heal us all, us all, us all.”
Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé is a true odyssey, a maximalist explosion of sparkles and beats and visuals and insight.

A Masterpiece of Artistry
As a long-time admirer of Beyoncé's talent and creativity, I couldn't wait to dive into her latest cinematic endeavor, "Renaissance." From the moment the opening credits rolled, I was completely captivated by the sheer artistry displayed on screen.
Beyoncé's vision shines through every frame, blending stunning visuals with powerful storytelling. Each scene feels like a carefully crafted work of art, drawing the audience deeper into the narrative with every passing moment. The cinematography is breathtaking, with every shot meticulously composed to evoke a sense of awe and wonder.
But it's not just the visuals that make "Renaissance" a standout film it's the emotion behind every performance. Beyoncé delivers a tour de force performance, displaying a range and depth that left me spellbound. Her portrayal of the lead character is nothing short of mesmerizing, capturing the essence of strength, vulnerability, and resilience in equal measure.
The soundtrack, as expected, is a highlight of the film, with Beyoncé's powerful vocals driving home the emotional beats of the story. Each song is expertly woven into the fabric of the narrative, enhancing the overall experience and leaving a lasting impact.
But perhaps what impressed me most about "Renaissance" is its message of empowerment and self-discovery. Through the journey of the protagonist, Beyoncé explores themes of identity, authenticity, and the power of embracing one's true self. It's a message that resonates deeply and lingers long after the credits roll.
In conclusion, "Renaissance" is a true masterpiece a triumph of artistry, storytelling, and pure talent. Beyoncé has once again proven herself to be a force to be reckoned with, and I can't wait to see what she has in store next.

Eu assisti esse filme no cinema com meu pai, que apesar de não ser fã dela, adorou o filme assim como eu. Acho a Bey uma artista incrível e ver ela performar em uma tela de cinema foi uma sensação incrível na qual eu nunca vou me esquecer.

Throughout Beyoncé’s career, it’s been made to appear that this woman is something closer to deity than one of us. She is the closest thing to perfection, a once-in-a-lifetime talent. But what’s made her so spectacular to us is, privately, exhausting. Renaissance is the merging of the two, showing us the sheer amount of determination and work it takes to produce a show like Renaissance, and the toll it takes on the very human woman behind it all.
While viewers should yearn for Beyoncé to allow others access to tell her story, we’re left with a stunning self-portrait that shows Beyoncé embracing her flaws, using them to improve, and passing on her hard-fought wisdom both in her home and on the stage.
The movie — and maybe Beyoncé’s life — is a constant negotiation between giving viewers that perfect show they crave and these moments of spontaneity. “Renaissance” as a whole sometimes struggles to find that balance, as it moves through all of its different and equally intriguing ideas. But maybe that’s the point.
Even if the concert sequences don’t completely do justice to the thrill of seeing this show in person, this documentary offers an in-depth souvenir of both the show itself and of this particular chapter in the ongoing saga of one of popular culture’s most intriguing, unpredictable, and powerful creators.
There is no star of such magnitude who more cunningly positions themselves as apolitical than Beyoncé. Her performance as an icon is meant to connect with the broadest number of people possible. To do that, her refusal to stand for anything specific beyond the watered-down treatises on Black excellence must be maintained.
She did it again, just like homecoming, the execution of this film is spectacular, the editing, the behind the scenes, the vocals, the dancing, all perfection! Absolutely perfect

Pretty conflicted on this. Beyonce's stamina and technical skills as a singer and dancer are beyond reproach and are fun to see. It's also refreshing to see an artist involved in every element of a show's production whereas she could surely pass a lot of duties to others. The sheer spectacle and fun of the concert comes to a grinding halt however during many of the documentary portions. Beyonce represents the American ethos of self-assured individualism about as well anyone in this film and it's hard to not feel that her approach to work sometimes veers into self-aggrandizement. It's wonderful to see the work of her many collaborators but did we also really need to see Beyonce overriding and belittling their advice? The implication in these sequences is that she is consistently combatting laziness, corner cutters and compromisers. She alone can do it. In the era of strongman politicians and megalomaniacal billionaires, is this really what we need to see? Beyonce addresses her take no guff attitude head one in at least one voiceover, saying it doesn't preclude empathy. Nice to hear but well it would been better to see, and maybe have the impression for at least a solitary moment that humility and accountability factored into the show and its music.

Perdoe-me Beyoncé, mas isso aqui não é cinema, sequer é um show, dado que pega retalhos de vários shows. É uma espécie de videoclipe com 3h de duração, e com uma péssima edição que intercala bastidores a cada 15 minutos, fazendo com que a imersão vai para o espaço. E não ter "Halo", "If i were a boy" nem "Singles Ladies"? Quê?

I suppose if you're a fan of Beyonce you'll likely give 'Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce' a great score. If however, like me, you found Beyonce's 'Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce' overrated, self-serving and a little facile then you'd probably want to give Beyonce's 'Renaissance A Film by Beyonce' - 2 stars.
