While I appreciate the importance of David Bowie's music in the documentary, I felt that some of the song choices were repetitive and didn't fully capture the breadth of Bowie's creativity and impact on the music industry. I was expecting a more diverse and engaging selection of tracks to accompany the storytelling.
