meh

Good but not too intresting like if it was a bit longer I wouldn't The movie was good, but not too interesting. It started off decent and had a few cool scenes, but nothing that really grabbed my attention. If it had been any longer, I probably wouldn't have finished it. Some parts felt slow or dragged on, and the story didn't fully pull me in. The characters were okay, but I didn't feel super connected to them. It's not a bad movie-just kind of average. One of those films you watch once, maybe enjoy a little, but then forget about. I wouldn't really recommend it unless someone just wants something to watch in the background or kill time.

Slowing down to see a car wreck without focusing on what caused it.

This documentary leans so heavily into the distress around individuals that attended the event and the impact on the families of them that suffered as a result of the incompetence as the central theme.The incompetence of those running the show and their failings seems like a side story.Using Travis Scott's music as a means to build tension during the cruishing scenes, and to build excitement early on in the doc is an insult to all those that suffered as a result to the mismanagement of this event.Shame on netflix for putting this out.Harrowing emotional bait without any constructive conversation.

Why?

The documentary is well-produced and emotionally impactful, but it lacks objectivity and balance. It fails to fully investigate systemic responsibility and instead fixates too much on Travis Scott's persona, undermining its own stated conclusions. The editing choices from the ominous music to the lingering shots of distressed fans feel crafted to steer emotion rather than inform. By leaning heavily into aesthetic mood and symbolic blame, Trainwreck misses an opportunity to ask deeper, harder questions about Live Nation, security protocols, city planning, and crowd control. Instead, it subtly nudges viewers toward a singular emotional conclusion, even while claiming neutrality. That disconnect is why it doesn't fully succeed as a documentary.
