Pulls off the entertainment value

Rating: 6/10 (15 May 2017)

I admit that I'm in the wrong demographic to appreciate all of the lampooning stuffed into this movie. Some stuff went right over my head and I had to shrug it off, but the younger crowd will probably find the relevance and think it was funny. I did laugh twice as the writing was pretty slick in places and I'm not totally insulated.
Overall, POPSTAR is watchable. The film provides an accurate portrayal of the music business and its insane ways. The fact that the producers managed to convince a bunch of superstars to make cameo appearances, where they pretty much made fun of themselves, says a lot about this industry.
But lets not get too philosophical. POPSTAR is entertaining and funny for the right crowd. Nothing too taxing for your brain here.
