Katie Walsh Tribune News Service 2h
3/4
XCX and Zamiri peel back the layers of tattered tanks and artfully blasé cool to reveal the woman behind the wraparound shades, and expose the work that goes into the "365 party girl." Go to Full Review Kristen Lopez The Film Maven 9h
C-
Though worthy in its attempts to modernize the rock mockumentary, there's no real humor or depth to the material, and what meaning is there has been done better before. Just listen to brat again. Go to Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture 2d
The point of a behind-the-scenes rock doc is that we’re getting something that feels like a true portrait of the artist. The Moment thinks it can have the best of both worlds, but it gives us neither. Go to Full Review Joseph Robinson Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) 1d
3/5
Charli XCX shines in this gritty, darkly humorous look at artistic integrity versus corporate pressure—though The Moment loses some momentum when it matters most. Go to Full Review Nicholas Bell Fish Jelly Films (YouTube) 1d
3/5
The warping realities of celebrity are satirized in this waggish but often thoughtful mockumentary which finds Charli xcx processing the demands of commerce eclipsing creation, as if it's 'Portrait of the Artist as a Young Machine.' Go to Full Review Gregory Nussen Screen Rant 1d
3/10
There is a certain hubris to making a film that is absolutely devoid of stakes, but it's hard to describe that gall as anything but absurdly arrogant, or else woefully out of touch. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
