Unique, fun, and a walk down memory lane

Pharrell Williams is one of the most iconic and creative artists of all time. Many generations can recognize his music, but few may know his story. From childhood to becoming a global brand, this is the unique story of Pharrell Williams.This is a unique biopic told through Lego animation, which makes it enjoyable for both adults and children. The story does not get into the nitty-gritty of Pharrell's journey through the music industry. It sticks to what inspired him and how he became one of the greatest music producers ever. The animation is colorful and captivating, and with Pharrell's music, it is even better. The movie feels less than one hour and thirty-three minutes, and it will have you tapping your foot and bobbing your head the entire time. This is a great movie to introduce the new generation to some of the hits we grew up with and share the story of someone who has accomplished so much.

a documentary unique as the man himself

You might think that Pharrell Williams is too young to have his own documentary biopic. I did too, until I saw PIECE BY PIECE. This is an animated LEGO portrayal of Pharrell's life and career, which is the most "Pharrell" thing he could do: defying genres as a person and with his music. I've only known him as a musician, but he's done so much more as a producer. This movie also shines a light on what music producers actually do. It opened my eyes to just how many huge songs Pharrell and his band The Neptunes had a hand in creating. To name-drop some artists: Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, Pusha T, Missy Elliott, and even Snoop Dogg, who has a very funny joke in this. This movie is directed by Morgan Neville, who won an award for the documentary 20 FEET FROM STARDOM. He does a great job detailing the ups and downs of life. One of the more fascinating aspects of this is how it depicts the way Pharrell listens to music. He has synesthesia, where he can actually see colors in his head while listening to music. This movie has lots of fun small details, due to the LEGO aesthetic. One thing I didn't expect to see is the portrayal of loss, especially not the Black Lives Matter movement. Pharrell didn't want to make just another regular biopic, it's definitely a breath of fresh air that is much more than just a gimmick. Imagination is such a powerful thing. This is a testament to self-belief and being uniquely yourself. If you're a Pharrell fan, go see it. If you're a LEGO fan, go see it. If you just wanna be happy, go see PIECE BY PIECE.

Bring tissues, LEGO can make you cry.

Piece by Piece is a stunning exploration of creativity through the medium of LEGO animation. The film captivates with its vibrant visuals, particularly the breathtaking sea, speed boat and sunset.What sets this film apart is its narrative style, utilizing interview voices to weave Pharrell's story within the fabric of the animation. The rhythm of the beat is palpable throughout, making it not just a visual treat but an auditory one as well, creating a deeply immersive experience.Don't miss it in a cinema. It's made for the big screen with its vivid colours and super sound track played loud!
