Critics Consensus

Satirizing Brat Summer and the pitfalls of pop stardom, The Moment is a mockumentary that could've used sharper barbs, but Charli XCX acquits herself well as a presence that can bind even an unwieldy movie together.

3/5

The film’s sardonic edge is dulled by a reliance on stereotypical depictions of philistine self-interest. Who would dream that music-industry hangers-on would be up-speaking solipsists? Well, almost everybody.

4/5

Refusing to take itself too seriously, this spirited contemporary period piece captures some of the insanity that was brat summer – but crucially reminds us there’s something to be said for knowing when to leave the party.

A blunt-edged satire that doesn’t always seem clear about the point it is trying to make, or to have much of a grasp of pacing and structure. But Charli XCX is a captivating presence who has no problem skewering the absurdities of celebrity.

If you are not into Charli XCX, it will be harder to get the jokes, but if you can give it grace and remember it is a mockumentary, then you could enjoy it. With so much to do, only Charli XCX fans or fans of the genre should watch it.

It's certainly no Spinal Tap. But it's modestly engaging.

3/5

It all adds up to a radical yet slightly empty film that doesn’t completely fulfil much of its promise, but as a necessary form of de-Bratification, The Moment breaks the phenomenon down enough for it to be exposed for the monster it’s become.
