Storyline

The camera follows Justin Bieber (1994- ) during the ten days leading up to his August, 2010, sold-out show at Madison Square Garden. Footage of these ten days of concerts, rehearsals, and down time with boyhood friends, his mom, and his entourage is inter-cut with home movies, old photos, and interviews showing a musical prodigy who loves to perform, comes to the attention of an Atlanta agent via YouTube, impresses Usher, and rockets to international stardom soon after his 15th birthday. His manager emphasizes the importance of social media and of Justin's work ethic and personality in making him a star; the camera emphasizes Bieber's look. His mom and grandparents shine.

User Reviews

too short to need a summary

I believe that if I pay for a movie then you should at least stay and watch it as you have payed the money for it

I sat through Vampires Suck.

I stood up from my chair and left this movie.

This "movie" is some of the worst film making I've ever seen, that's if you could consider an hour and a half tribute to a prepubescent teenager while like camera shows his 12 year old female fans a movie.

Unless you're a 12 year old who is currently under the impression that Justin Bieber is the world's most talented person on Earth the AVOID this movie.

If you ARE a 12 year old who is currently under the impression that Justin Bieber is God, go listen to music from 80's / 90's.

If there was a 0 stars option, I would have picked it. This movie made me sick.
