Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé Playing in Theaters
Beyoncé’s highly anticipated film covering her Renaissance Tour will be released in theaters on December 1st, 2023! Experience the breathtaking costuming, the outrageous obstacles, and Beyoncé’s fierce determination at Cinemark Durbin Park, Regal Avenues, Cinemark Tinseltown Jacksonville, etc. Below are some meaningful comments on the movie:
Wesley Morris, The New York Times: “For we have before our eyes an entertainer at peak command of her art and therefore herself. We don’t exactly need her to tell us how newly free she feels, as Beyoncé does here. She’s meaningfully permitting us to study her touring and family life, to examine — no, to savor — her creative process.”
Rob Sheffield, Rolling Stone: “There’s Beyoncé offstage, trying to show how she’s just another member of her big happy creative family—as she says, “There’s so many bees in this hive.” She wants to be a team player. But then there’s Beyoncé onstage, transforming into a goddess and proving why she’s an absolutely unique life form in the universe… Renaissance is her tribute to the community around her, and the dance-culture legacy that inspired her. But as soon as she steps in front of a crowd and the spotlight hits her, there’s no doubt about who’s the queen.”
Cady Lang, Time: “Some of the most compelling moments of the film come in Beyoncé’s acknowledgement of the many hands that made the tour possible. She gives shoutouts to everyone from personal assistants to light technicians and gives flowers to the pioneers of disco, ballroom, and house, the Black queer musical genres that defined her album and whose artists she worked with to create it.”
