Review of Katy Perry: Part of Me (2012) by Dann M — 15 Oct 2012

While pop sensation Katy Perry may only have limited musical talent, she proves to be quite a showman in her concert film Katy Perry: Part of Me. It follows Katy Perry's 2011 world tour and provides some background information as to how Perry got her start in the music business.

But there's very little depth to the film, and it doesn't offer much of an insight into Perry, her music, or her concerts. What we get is a slick and stylized compilation of footage showing her bombastic concert shows, and interviews with the crew members and fans singing her praises.

Katy Perry: Part of Me is mostly a propaganda film, but it also captures the fun and excitement of the concert experience.
