While the content in the documentary is neatly compiled and put together, there's very little stuff in it that's ground-breaking. This is Netflix's ready-to-consume version of the New York Times documentaries on Britney's paparazzi-filled life. The first 20 minutes or so, including an interview with K-Fed's lawyer, doesn't excite all that much. The documentary rushes into high gear once the conservatorship aspect is brought up, and from there on, it's quite engaging. Most of the interviews featured in the documentary are in favor of Britney as a person - so, it wouldn't make sense to call it objective. Heck, it's almost a fan perspective, reinstating what the media and the public already know about Britney simply wanting to live life her way. Since the hearing that decides whether or not to conclude the conservatorship is due shortly, this honestly feels like Netflix trying to milk whatever they can from the situation. That's not a complaint, however. But let's #FreeBritney and hear what she has to say before it's too late!
