Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I wouldn't say I'm a "fan" of Katy Perry but I do like her music. I was curious to see into the world of Katy Perry. I watched the Beyonce documentary last year and found that to be quite self absorbed and pretentious. Katy's movie wasn't anything like that. She includes her fans in the movie and there are no selfies. There's just her doing what she does. The middle of the movie does focus a little on her divorce to Russell. She started the movie before the divorce, but it's easy to see why people think she's trying to cash in on it. It was quite emotional seeing her experience raw emotion and exhaustion. It was nice to see she's a normal girl with a great songwriting talent. I also noticed she has a little bit of a tummy, but that made me relate more to her and realise she is just a human being like me. It was nice to see a celeb not airbrushed and makeup free. Exposed. After seeing this I wouldn't want to go see Katy on tour (turns out she's a terrible dancer!), but I enjoyed watching it. I love it when she says to the audience "Thank you for believing in my weirdness".

There are some very miserable spiteful reviews on here. They usually contain such revelations as 'I don't like Katy Perry's music and hated this movie'. Er... what are you doing watching a film about Katy Perry if you don't like Katy Perry's music. I know, you came to be bored and to dislike it and you succeeded. The film contains a very revealing and surprising story about a genuinely gifted songwriter breaking out of her strict religious upbringing and rising to the very highest peak that anybody could possibly wish for. She did it through shear determination and spirit. She did not get it handed to her. She was in fact jerked around by all the record companies and almost sunk until, in one memorable quote, one of the young female execs stole her music from the company and 'snuck out' with it, so that she would be free to find success at another label which had people of some imagination and vision instead of the lame egotistical dicks that she was tied to at that time. Her message is absolutely positive, absolutely empowering and liberating for young girls, and the concert footage shows just how transcendent that message becomes for them at the live shows. She is not sleazy or nasty or stupid. If I had a daughter I would strongly approve of her being a 'Katy cat'. I enjoyed every minute of this documentary. Those who hated it are most likely sad old men or jealous bitches. I reckon.

Katy Perry is set to headline one of the acts during this month's Singapore Formula One Grand Prix week, but so much has changed in her life since her last visit some two years ago, where she held court during her press conference at Marina Bay Sands' rooftop pool, and cajoled the media into entering the infinity pool with her. Since then, so much has changed, with her embarking on a world tour, getting married to British comedian Russell Brand, followed by separation and divorce, and then there's this film.Katy Perry: Part of Me follows the documentary style that's somewhat established by the filmmakers of Justin Bieber's Never Say Never, which was screened last year, where the structure intersperses her live concert numbers with the documentary moments that see the usual talking head interviews with friends, family and fans, capturing the flavour and fervour that is all things surrounding this pop princess, who had sealed the real deal for herself through her albums, given that she has tremendous talent in writing her own songs drawn from so many things she wishes to express, appealing to her teenage demographic for various inspirational messages underlying her music, and that down to earthliness in her in wanting to genuinely connect with her fans, coupled with that sunshine, always smiling persona that's really appealing.I have to admit I do listen to some of her songs when they're played over the airwaves, and know little about the singer, other than her very kooky persona that thankfully didn't border too close to the more eccentric Lady Gaga. Part of Me the film provides a sneak peek into the day into the life of a current pop star, and the efforts she had put into building her career and lifting herself from obscurity, riding on the explosion of her popularity, yet keeping everything grounded in not forgetting the people who had put her there, from her production team, fans, and family. Or pulling along those who are in the same boat as her, in starting out, and getting them under her fold to help develop their careers at the same time. These are qualities rarely seen.Fans will already know of her gospel singing background and beginnings, being the daughter of travelling preachers, which makes it a almost like a natural progression to serve in the church and singing gospel songs. And from there, after a stint in Los Angeles that's really heading nowhere, fate played a part in getting the right doors opened for her, and through her very positive personality, charted history.Thie film chronicles her juggling of her year long world tour in 2011, the first the singer ever embarked on, providing us a look at the preparation, venues, and basically how things move like clockwork from point to point. It's a fairy tale like setting during her concert, and this pop princess holds court in bringing her audiences and fans into a make believe world filled with pastel colours, and larger than life sets, coupled with fun, Katy Perry style. And those who may have thought that she was a tad impulsive with her marriage, would do themselves a favour in seeing the effort she puts in to jet set from place to place just to spend quality time with Brand. The documentary doesn't shy away from exploring what actually happened, and how it affected her during the tour, albeit more behind the scenes. What I felt was besides the distance, perhaps a little bit of a professional jealousy and envy also got into play, with one clearly the more popular than the other, which may have ruffled some bruised egos without her knowing.Ever the consummate professional, you can sense her pain as she decided to soldier on, not wanting to let the thousands of fans down at each venue. There was a scene that was quite poignant, where she was breaking down backstage, but at the moment she has to go on, off goes the tears, and in comes the smile. It's not easy and some may be quick to say it's hypocritical, but having done so, it's not to disappoint her fans who are present for a good time, and you can imagine the pain in making others happy, while crying alone inside.The more famous songs of hers get full air play and concert treatment, so it will appeal to fans, and non fans who would probably have heard the song somewhere else. After watching this, I've new found respect for the singer, and is just a tad tempted to get tickets to watch her perform in Singapore live in a few weeks time. Recommended!

If you like Katy Perry go, it shows how she is just like a real person. You see her excitement, her happiness, and her struggles. If you don't like her don't go, don't bash on this film if you dislike her or haven't even seen it. Yes it is about another celebrity and her life, but it's motivational. I liked how she had the different girls and boys talking about how Katy has inspired them and the parts of how close her family she is. It's crazy how religiously based her mom and dad were and no matter what she sings about her mom and dad are right there supporting her. They didn't like the fact of her first single, but they are happy she's happy. In my opinion worth watching if your a K.P fan!
