Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (documentary concert film) by Paramount Pictures

Justin Bieber: Never Say Never
Documentary Concert Film
Paramount Pictures, 2011

GENRE: Documentary, Concert Film

HONORS: None known

REVIEW:  Never Say Never is a documentary film featuring teen pop sensation Justin Bieber. The film details Bieber’s journey from a young Canadian boy with a love for singing and performing, to an international superstar who manages to sell out the iconic venue Madison Square Garden.

OPINION: I’m not sure how accurately his story was portrayed, but I certainly liked Justin Bieber a lot more after watching the documentary, which is an improvement since the footage and interviews I had seen of him previously led me to believe he was an arrogant and pompous young superstar. The film features a great deal of home video, footage of Bieber at home in his home environment and concert footage and would appeal to any kid with a case of Bieber Fever.

IDEAS: Bieber got his start by making videos on youtube. The TAG or class could work together to create a short film or video.
