Movie revisiting TxT 2022 US Tour: wish it went deeper but still felt a lot of emotions watching it
This documentary movie follows the summer 2022 US Tour of Tomorrow x Together which culminated with their first participation to the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago.
As I enjoy TxT's music and appreciate the 5 members also in their individualities, it is difficult to give an objective opinion on this movie... The angle of approach of the documentary seems to be that after debuting in March 2019 and not being able to do tours/live concerts with real people during the pandemic years, the group can finally meet again its fans in the real world. It is an intelligent starting point but at the same time, I must say that overall the message the director was going for seems kind of vague.
The film consists in a mix of several elements: some interviews with the members to get their feelings and input on what happened during the tour, some behind-the-scenes moments regarding the organisation, preparation and repetitions for the concerts in addition to some storytelling about the tour focusing on specific situations happening to the members. Therefore, the direction of the movie feels not clear. They try to go into too many things but at the same times it stays in a way too superficial because of the lack of time to deepen the topics.
If you are a casual fan of the group or even considered yourself as a MOA, I'm not sure it will give you really a lot of new insights on TxT. But you will still of course for sure enjoy the movie. If you are a newcomer or know very little about TxT, I'm not sure you will really understand all the ins and outs regarding the group...There are very little contextualization done in the documentary regarding the launch of the group, their music, each of the members and you might not totally get the importance of some of the events.
Despite its shortcomings, I really think it was a quite interesting watch that will bring you for sure some feelings. It is enjoyable but also really painful on some aspects as the boys face many difficulties to go through the tour. It has clearly a physical and emotional impact on them but at the same time, they share also pure moments of joy and are rewarded of their tremendous efforts.
I would recommend this to people that love TxT. It is a nice complementary watch to revisit the 2022 US Tour in another way. Even though I wish it would have been deeper on some aspects, I'm still grateful in a way about the fact that they shared both the joyful times but also the more painful moments. It was done in a controlled way but at least it does not totally brush off the difficulties faced. It is beautiful in a way to know that just one year later, in summer 2023, the group successfully headlined the Lollapalooza festival.
