When his new album fails to sell records, pop/rap superstar conner4real goes into a major tailspin and watches his celebrity high life begin to collapse. He'll try anything to bounce back, anything except reuniting with his old rap group The Style Boyz. Incredibly stupid, cheesy and just a waste of time and definitely money 'Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping' has genre cliches and things in it that i should be expecting by it to see plus the whole documentary/movie thing did not work for me either and the acting? was even worse to say the least.

How does anyone find this funny or entertaining? Has acting come to such a low standard that it has to produce a movie about nothing? Is this what our youth thinks comedy is? I had to quit watching because I got embarrassed.....It's no wonder why some Hollywood Actors are so bitter these days and turn to political views to try and maintain face.

Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping (2016) This is a rockumentary about musical prodigy that formed a rap group with his childhood friends. They gain fame, but eventually split up. Our lead, played NY Andy Samberg, decides to go Solo. The cast includes the rest of the Lonely Island Boys, a parody music group that includes Samberg. Some of their music has been highlighted on Saturday Night Live. There are a handful of musicians that make cameo appearances or play small parts. Done, most likely, to try to give some legitimacy to their fictional characters. This is basically a skit concept turned into a motion picture. This is a hard task and often gets misunderstood by audiences. It didn't fare well in theaters and received mixed reviews, but it does displays Samberg's and friends and gifted talents. If you're a fan of Samberg and the Lonely Island Boys, give this film a try..

Scenes in this movie had me laughing harder than I've laughed in a long time. Other scenes fell way short. In its entirety, it is worth it to wade through some jokes that missed the mark to enjoy some spot on satire and comedic excellence.The parts that shine in the movie are the songs. Not Gay had me rolling. The portrayal of how pop culture latches itself onto the social issues of the day, regardless of personal beliefs is hilariously accurate.Samberg shows an amazing ability to be a self-absorbed prick and yet somehow still likable. Too often comedies will sacrifice the laughs to try and draw up a meaningful conclusion to the story, but this movie accomplishes both without sacrificing either.Surprisingly enjoyable. 8/10
