This is Us storms into the theater and captures the hearts of millions. Girls everywhere are going crazy of the new release of One Direction’s This Is Us.

Let me just start off by saying how amazing the movie was. This is Us was the highlight of every Directioner’s month, beside the Best Song Ever music video release. The movie wasn’t the typical kind of documentary movie, it was light hearted, funny and overall different. The best part was that it was in 3D, so the experience was even more enjoyable.

The movie was focused on each member of the band One Direction: Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Harry Styles and Liam Payne. The movie went in depth of their life prior to the X-Factor and how much the show had changed their lives.

No one in the band knew each other before being put together by Simon Cowell. They reached an exceeding amount of fame while performing on the X-Factor; and even though they lost, Cowell had signed them to his record label. Today everybody knows who they are: they are number one in 37 countries, broke the YouTube most viewed video in one day record not once, not twice, but THREE times.

The movie also concentrated on the boys’ personal lives and relationships with their parents and maintaining balance between their old life and their new one. You get to see that the boys are just five normal boys with normal families, and with normal everyday things to do. They try and keep the normalcy in their lives because they themselves do not want to let fame go to their head.

One Direction had made a lot of achievements over the past three years. They each started out in some part of Britain, or Ireland for Niall, and worked up the courage to sing in front of the judges and be placed in a band where they didn’t know anyone. Five random people put together know nothing about each other, or even their age make music that takes over the world. The movie shows how that boys take that friendship and turn it around for a stronger bond.

If you’re a Directioner, then you know what the boys have gone through before the X-Factor. Liam had been bullied and teased, Louis has daddy issues, Zayn was threatened because he is Muslim, Harry was openly bi-sexual, and Niall was the odd one out. Each of them still receive hate mail and death threats because of who they are. The movie does a great job of showing how the guys deal with the hate and still emerge stronger from it.

Overall, if you’re not a fan of One Direction then seeing this movie will change your mind. You see they are five normal boys with a passion for music that has led them to fame. They want to sing to people who will listen. This is Us is a whole new level for this fandom.

Watch it. Live it. Love it.
