A Beautiful Real Life is a 2025 Danish documentary film about the life of pop star Christopher Lund Nissen. [2] It was released on 27 August 2025 by Netflix. [1] [3]
Jose Solís from Common Sense Media rated the film 2/5 saying "It plays like a 90-minute promo reel designed to hype fans about his tour." [4]
Alice Lange from Martin CID called it a "controlled, observational study" saying "Rather than building toward a sensational reveal, the film catalogues the mechanics of contemporary music work—rehearsals, studio refinement, media blocks, travel routines—and juxtaposes them with the ordinary tempo of home life." [5]
Anjali Sharma from Midgard Times gave the film 7/10 and said "Christopher: A Beautiful Real Life is like a slow melody that builds into something quietly memorable. It's sincere, grounded, and avoids dramatising for effect." [6]
