Gaga: Five Foot Two (2017)

An American documentary directed by Chris Moukarbell, starring Lady Gaga.
Gaga's PR firm made her a promotional documentary.
What a farce! An hour and a half, of course. The "plot" follows Gaga as she finishes an album and gets ready for the super bowl. During this time, she films 2 music videos and goes to the doctor because of physical pain. I cared not for the characters. Gaga is possessed by demons and is paying the price for fame with physical and emotional pain. The bitch hits her record producer's car with her jeep in a parking lot and shows only superficial remorse. They're both rich and can buy new vehicles, so they don't care. The dialogue seemed scripted or stoned. Pick one and you're probably right. Sets looked like rich bitch paradise "Oh, I'll take my bikini top off now for no real reason". Camera-work was atrocious. hand held with vertical format cell phone footage mixed in every once in a while. The only positive aspect was a short shot of some serious female anatomy points. Audio was not bad, except "her" music. As if anyone would believe that she writes songs! It was laughable. She's there in the studio, holding guitars and pretending to play piano. IMDb lists a rating of 7.1/10 and Rotten Tomatoes lists 74% Tomatometer with 80% Audience Score for an average of 75%. Apparently, people like being lied to. I watched it to the end, but I rate it shit anyway. Oh, poor demon-possessed pop star has to do work. Poor, poor Gaga with her millions of dollars, rich bitch mansion and Mercedes-smashing jeep. Go cry to your personal chiropractor.
