Warning: Spoilers
The movie begins with a monologue about childhood, narrated by Beyonce. Then we're at a concert, she drops the B word for some reason (She's bad like that), and we're done with that.

Then the "documentary" goes on to the event concerning her father, and their breakup as co workers, Beyonce talks, in, this, slow, and, odd way, as, if, everything, she, says, has, a, deep, impact, and, are meaningfull, but really, it's just comes off as if she is not accustomed to use those big words ...

Then we see her being interviewed, Beyonce is talking about the cross-road she faced after she fired here father, and throws all this questions at the viewers regarding her priorities, and guess what, next sentence is about something completely different.

Next we have her talking about how we all are brained-washed by the media, well, this is something we can argue, but, why, does, she, still, talk, like, this?

Next we see her before her album release, in the office, listing to one of the songs, while mostly white men in their mid 40 is bumping their head (not exactly to the beat, but just randomly), and she paused the song and says "sorry (something something)" and the room breaks out in laughter, and stands up clapping. After thet is done with, one of the men (the one sitting closest to B) says that this album raises the bar. That is funny Because as B is leaving the building we see a poster of Adel's "21", a album that did raise the bar.

Anyway, anyway, that is how far I came, the movie is co-directed by B, and that just means that it is going to be shallow, after all, a self-portrait that you publish will not be anything more than that. B tires hard to be deep, but the movie is shot in this artsy way witch makes it come off as superficial. If my review came off disjointed, it's because the movie is like that, now try watching an hour of that. :)
