Watch Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping For Free

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

"Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping" is wonderful musical mockumentary from the Lonely Island boys (Andy Samberg, Jorma Taccone, Akiva Schaffer). Rather than string a few of their film clips with a tenuous plot, they've created an original movie, with original songs.Gleefully aping Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never", Samberg plays pop-rapper Conner4Real, a former member of boy band The Style Boyz with childhood friends Owen (Taccone) and Lawrence (Schaffer). Conner4Real become a solo superstar and a tabloid darling, his excessive ego and bravado makes Oasis in the nineties look restrained. The film charts the release of Conner's second album Connquest, some questionable appliance-based marketing choices, his friendship-turned rivalry with rapper Hunter the Hungry (Chris Redd) and eventual fall from superstardom. As well as SNL alumni Sarah Silverman, Tim Meadows, Bill Hader and Maya Rudolph, "Popstar" has an impressive list of guest stars, most who've collaborated with Lonely Island, including:Akon, ASAP Rocky, Michael Bolton, Mariah Carey, Régine Chassagne, Simon Cowell, Danger Mouse, DJ Khaled, Jimmy Fallon, 50 Cent, Adam Levine, Nas, Pink, Questlove, The Roots, RZA, Seal, Martin Sheen, Snoop Dogg, Ringo Starr, T.I., Carrie Underwood, Usher and Pharrell Williams. The best cameo is from the always-game Justin Timberlake, playing Connor4Real's put upon tour chef.Samberg - of course - dominates this movie, with Taccone and Schaffer pulling double duty as directors and playing Conner's bandmates."Popstar" deserves its MA rating, with a number of delightfully filthy songs, including "Finest Girl", which uses Osama Bin Laden's death as a sexual metaphor. The soundtrack is a must buy/download for Lonely Island fans.As a mockumentary, "Popstar" won't have the wide appeal - or legacy - of Spinal Tap, but it's still a heap of fun, especially if you love Lonely Island's music.

this movie was great. it was funny and clever. if you are a fan of the lonely island you know how good their comedy songs are, this movie didn't disappoint. very underrated and very under-appreciated, better than I thought it would be................ andy, jorma, and akiva did a great job.

I have watched this movie more times than I care to admit. It is funny. Just it is. I love Andy Samberg. Loved it. Watch it every time it is on. 43 year old mom. Love this movie. The Bin Laden song- golden. It is spot on in so many ways and honestly it is just comedy genius. I had different things in my Jeep. Sarah Silverman, it is all just so much.

Scenes in this movie had me laughing harder than I've laughed in a long time. Other scenes fell way short. In its entirety, it is worth it to wade through some jokes that missed the mark to enjoy some spot on satire and comedic excellence.The parts that shine in the movie are the songs. Not Gay had me rolling. The portrayal of how pop culture latches itself onto the social issues of the day, regardless of personal beliefs is hilariously accurate.Samberg shows an amazing ability to be a self-absorbed prick and yet somehow still likable. Too often comedies will sacrifice the laughs to try and draw up a meaningful conclusion to the story, but this movie accomplishes both without sacrificing either.Surprisingly enjoyable. 8/10
