Netflix has become the home of a must-see documentary that's been dubbed a "masterpiece" by fans.
Piece By Piece: Official trailer
Netflix has just rolled out one of the most wildly creative documentary films of recent years.
Boasting a star-studded cast, an uplifting narrative, and a killer soundtrack, this is a must-watch for hip-hop enthusiasts.
Piece by Piece chronicles the life of renowned musician Pharrell Williams, tracing his journey from modest beginnings to worldwide fame.
The catch? The entire story, from his childhood in Virginia Beach to a slew of celebrity interviews, unfolds through Lego animation, reports the Mirror US.
A host of big-name pop stars, including Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and many others, appear as Lego renditions of themselves to help narrate Pharrell's story.
This fanciful yet often unexpected and inspiring voyage is currently available on Netflix for fans to immerse themselves in.
Although it didn't exactly set the box office ablaze upon its release last year, a passionate group of fans have been singing its praises, and now, thanks to the streaming platform, it's been granted a second shot at success.
One glowing five-star Google review hailed it as "A Masterpiece of Music and Inspiration".
The reviewer went on to say: "Piece by Piece is nothing short of an EXCELLENT documentary that brilliantly captures the essence of Pharrell Williams' extraordinary journey in the music industry.
"I had the pleasure of watching this insightful film with my 10-year-old daughter, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience for both of us."
Yet another glowing review raved: "I LOVED THIS, OMG. The way it visually captures Pharrell's aura and his style of music? 10/10.
"There's honestly no other way to describe how much I love this film.
"The music, the way you can feel the story - unlike other documentaries where it's just someone talking - this one hits different. You feel it in your heart and soul."
A third enthusiast claimed: "One of the best movies I've seen in awhile. The music, story, characters, colors, production in general was amazing."
On Letterboxd, support for the documentary continued, with a viewer stating: "To me this was completely mesmerizing and extremely creative exactly in the same way that Williams is.
"This movie will inspire you to reach for the stars, in more ways than one! Also surprisingly, it brings a freshness and originality to a "docu" format that makes it feel all new again."
Another fan expressed: "This movie is magical in every way.
"The soundtrack is legendary and immerses you in the story, making you want to stay glued to the screen from beginning to end.
"In conclusion, Piece by Piece is an animated cinematic masterpiece that's absolutely worth your time. I'd give it a 10/10 and highly recommend it."
