Review of Wham!

Wham! (2023)
6/10
Didn't love it
7 July 2023
Although I enjoyed the trip down memory lane, there's something not quite right about this doco. In terms of cohesive narrative, the middle is out of place with things that should have been in the beginning, such as the friendship between George and Andrew, as well as George's dad revealing his controlling, domineering personality. As it is framed, George says he was afraid to come out to his father, yet the reason why isn't revealed until later, and narratively speaking, it doesn't make sense where it is placed.

Picky, picky.

Ultimately, this is a production that George (RIP) would be proud of. It's a story from before I was old enough to understand, a tale of determination and a sprinkling of luck.

I hope in future we can see Part 2 of George's stellar career.
