Reviews for this film from our members:
- Dragan Antulov @ Draxblog VI [Croatian]
- Edwin Arnaudin @ Ashvegas
- Excerpt: Based on his track record, the typically subversive Spurlock has a potentially electric topic handed to him. He’d probably go for it, too, if Cowell wasn’t looming over him and his wrists weren’t shackled to several large suitcases of money.
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: It’s a “Tiger Beat” article in video form, a feature-length music video featuring the group’s biggest songs and fluffy moments.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: …whitewashed to only put the best face forward. Although there’s plenty of song, these five guys travel the world with no wine and no women (Taylor Swift, briefly attached to heartthrob Harry, has been excised) except their moms.
- Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: A glossy, promotional concept that’s overly enhanced by unnecessary amplification.

- Darren Mooney @ the m0vie blog
- Excerpt: Somehow, I’m nto convinced the title is entirely honest.

- Excerpt: Should we have expected anything more than endless shots of backstage boys-will-be boys fun and screaming, ravenous fans? I did. The director of This Is Us is none other than Morgan Spurlock, the anti-corporate crusader who previously made the revealing Super Size Me and product placement-focused The Greatest Movie Ever Sold.

- Matthew Sorrento @ Film International
- Frank Swietek @ One Guys Opinion
- Excerpt: Part concert movie, part bio-sketch and all commercial…[but] expertly directed, handsomely shot, spiffily edited and–perhaps most important of all–well recorded.
