So preposterous perhaps, but also honest and brilliant - the film, and the man.

It skirted around George's chronic drugs problems, and made no mention of the circumstances surrounding his death. But it also neglected to mention that he was an endlessly generous man, who gave away millions without asking for recognition.

I tried to watch without prejudice, but in the end I felt I'd just been watching a supersized commercial.

Freedom is a great work of documentary filmmaking: stylishly shot, narratively gripping and backed by string arrangements composed by Michael himself

[George Michael: Freedom] may have embraced hagiography at times, but it showcased a rare, compelling, self-effacing talent

The documentary's heavy emphasis on the early-to-mid '90s has the marked feel of someone taking stock of their memories and curating their desired legacy. Which, of course, is the prerogative of an authorized, posthumous, hour-and-a-half documentary.

As a narrator, Michael was as you'd expect: smart, self-deprecating, with an underlying melancholy.

The film wanted for grit, and for context. Where we needed Johnny Marr, we got only James Corden. Where we could have done with a Simon Reynolds-style figure, we had to make do with a nodding Mark Ronson.

While the pop singer, as you would expect, doesn't dig too deeply into the more scandalous aspects of his life, the documentary isn't simply self-serving, either.
October 20, 2017
Essentially a glorified sizzle reel stringing together interviews and TV performances any serious fan is likely to have already seen, the documentary does little to deepen our understanding of Michael or his music.

For all of Freedom: George Michael I just didn't know what I was watching.
