‘Martha’ Review: Martha Stewart Unplugged In Candid And Surprising Tell-All Netflix Documentary


A review of 'Martha' which is a new documentary from R. J. Cutler that serves as a surprisingly honest and compelling look at the person you don't know

Boy was I ever wrong, happily so, because this is simply a riveting, candid, and surprisingly warts-and-all look at the life and times of Stewart, someone very much in the public eye for much of her career, but until now guarding the image and the person behind what we thought we knew about her. Her “comeback” is nothing short of remarkable including a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover at age 81 that got 100 billion impressions, and especially in an off the wall appearance on Comedy Central’s roast of Justin Bieber, no less. She steals the show with a wickedly funny routine, and sits next to Snoop Dogg at the taping, an introduction that has led to their own professional pairing, proving life can provide strange detours and new beginnings.
