4/5
And the way it’s told in such terrifying detail, with endless phone footage stitching together a portrait of hell... Go to Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex Jul 5
7/10
While the story is still a little barebones in its telling, the result is effective. The Astroworld Tragedy was preventable. Go to Full Review Bernelee Vollmer Independent Online (South Africa) Jun 23
It raises difficult questions about celebrity culture, crowd safety and who gets to decide when something has gone too far. Go to Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Jun 12

8/10
