The docu gives a nice insight in their early days mostly. So engaging in that vibe when I also got to know their music is already just comforting to watch. The good old times.
Of course they cover a bit of their background and their decision to stay anonymous, made a creative decision with great marketing as a result.
But, as a result, you still don't get to see much about them. Also the later years, aren't covered much. It feels bit like they had some old footage and then just told a "fine" story around It with some talking heads about how amazing they are, and yes, I agree.
Daft punk had this rare ability to make beats like any other, but still different, grooves like the greats, yet, again, still somehow different sounding. But, there's nothing in this documentary that gives more insight in that or them. It also doesn't really align with their art. It's just more about nostalgia and a bit of storytelling, which is pleasant, but sadly, unlike their music, art & marketing, nothing groundbreaking.
