This film is very much in the same style as Justin Bieber's 3D concert movie, with live footage of Katy's concert interspersed with the story of her life, both up to the moment of her success and the turbulent ride of 2011 (including her separation from husband Russell Brand). The concert footage is, unsurprisingly, alive and vivid in 3D. Fireworks, foam cannons and clouds of ticker-tape rush towards the audience, as Katy belts out hit after hit. But what makes the film interesting is seeing how Katy reached that point in her career. Many may not know of her beginnings as a Christian pop artist, and the struggle she endured to get signed to a label. It seems that her destiny was to release a movie of her life, as most major turning points of her journey seem to have been documented already by home videos and personal photos. This blends together to become an interesting and revealing insight on how hard she has worked to reach her current level of success, including interviews with her family, support staff and friends. As Katy's tour draws on, the viewer clearly sees the toll her relationship takes. Some key shots are quite revealing, opening up a Katy Perry that is more human and fragile than the pop world would have you believe. One key shot in the film fully reveals how her personal life is impacting her greatly, yet she stands tall and paints on a smile, ready to return to the stage for her adoring fans. If you're a Katy Perry fan, you'll adore this film. If you're just an average radio listener, then you'll enjoy seeing one of the world's biggest celebrities in a much more human light.
