How does Live Nation sleep at night?

I have no formal training in how to rate a documentary. I can only give my opinion.Honestly, I appreciated this one. This event is of significant interest to me because I am from Houston, and remember hearing about this on the news. Travis Scott, in my opinion, brought disgrace to Houston. The fact that he gets to carry on with his life of luxury and others don't is disgusting.However, while I initially solely blamed Travis Scott, after watching, I have an entirely new perspective. So, learned something, which is why I watch documentaries to begin with.How Live Nation skirted the blame is beyond me. Perhaps we don't have all of the information? IDK, but those text messages between the producers and sound engineer tell me everything I need to know. I wish I had received my jury summons for that day. They 100% should have been sued for the $750 million dollars, and the people should have won. Maybe things would actually change if they were hit where it hurts- their greed.This documentary won't bring back the people that were lost, but I'm glad someone was able to share their perspective, so it's definitely worth the watch. I don't know how the people at Live Nation sleep at night...so sad this tragedy could have been avoided.

Did They Really Learn the Lesson?

This documentary does a solid job capturing individual experiences at Astroworld, but it lacks a deeper investigation into why the tragedy happened in the first place. There's a clear absence of critical reflection on the organizational failures, especially from Live Nation's side.As someone who has attended many hip-hop shows over the years, I've seen firsthand how dominant Live Nation is in the live music scene-and how little seems to have changed since Astroworld. I went to Rolling Loud last year, also produced by Live Nation, and it honestly didn't feel like any lessons had been learned. Security staff seemed untrained, and crucial aspects like venue selection, crowd flow, and transportation were clearly not well thought out.Given the intensity of hip-hop crowds, the rise of rage culture, and the continued lack of proper organization, it's not hard to imagine something like this happening again (though I hope it never does). I really hope this documentary sparks serious conversations among concert organizers and show producers about safety, logistics, and accountability in live event production.

Kind of Intense

This is a well done documentary do not get me wrong but it is very intense. There were times when I felt I was at the concert. Very Strange.The victims testimonies teared me up a bit so be prepared for those. The negative reviews mentioned the tone was to sway our opinions towards Travis but we really did not have to, the proof was in this documentary of what happened. Total neglect from involved.The documentary did what it was supposed to do and that is bring the art in motion to the viewer and that is what the director did here. Towards the end did feel rushed but all in all id definitely recommend watching this.
