That was an excellent one.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Anyone expecting subtlety or insight from Christian Larson's account of Swedish House Mafia's final world tour will be sadly disappointed.This is a bold, brassy kaleidoscope, both sonic and visual, of the band in performance, augmented by some not-exactly-original insights on life on tour from the band members themselves. We learn about the rigors of moving endlessly from place to place, constructing and striking the elaborate sets, and the "difficulties" (if they can be described as such) experienced by the band in keeping the unwelcome attention of their legions of fans at bay.This kind of material has been well-trodden in previous films such A HARD DAY'S NIGHT (1964) and DON'T LOOK BACK (1967). LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND will appeal to fans of Swedish House Mafia but not to others unacquainted with their work.

3 strong individuals joined forces and look what they produces, some of the greatest music in history. Was indeed very difficult to watch this documentary knowing that this was a goodbye to everyone. They told a story about each and one of these DJ's and we got to see them tour the world. These guys are truly talented and its heartbreaking to see them no longer be UNITED. We always was wondering why would such an amazing group go separate ways? Now we got few answers anyway. The documentary let us all in , in their tours around the world and backstage moments, their families and a bit about themselves. Truly worth watching regardless if you are a fan of their music or not. Even if you arnt a big fan of their music, you still get to see a a glimpse of how DJ live and how their daily days look like. It was like they welcomed us all into their daily days.

After watching the Leave the World Behind: One Last Tour I had only one word on my mind: Why? Why this great trio had to broke up? Of course the answer on my question was cleared through the 95 min. of total duration of the film. We can witness how these DJs prepared for their last tour but also I had the chance to learn about their first steps in the music industry. How they met, ho they formed the group and finally how the conquered the EDM world. I have mixed feelings right now. We've lost a great group but it was unavoidable. They stop the exact moment where they should. At their peak! At their very best! They could really stay 3-4 years making some tracks but would they be same or higher quality? I doubt it, as they do at their film. Also, their friendship was already in steak after a while and we can tell watching the film. There where conflicts constantly and they where about to lose their magic. Bottom line, this is a ***** star film and a MUST HAVE for every Swedish House Mafia or EDM fan.

The Swedish House Mafia broke up, no need to sugarcoat it and this film certainly doesn't do that. The movie gives insight in how 3 individuals with different backgrounds got together to create music, and how it evolved from that point, with 'Don't you worry child' as their high-point and last creation. Of course the movie is filled with great images of performances and I know of no other music documentary/film that delivered the party-feeling so well. A few bits are repeated from the previous documentary (Take One), but the main-theme 'one last tour' makes it very different.I have been to one of the Last Tour performances, and I've been on-stage next to the DJs as part of press-work I did at festivals. The Swedish House Mafia have always been different compared to other DJs of the new generation. They party off-stage but are fully focused on delivering a unique experience for the crowd when behind the turn-tables. In the film this is captured in a great way, while showing the different styles that Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello have. This is not only applicable to the music, but also personal lives and role in the Swedish House Mafia collaboration. Steve Angello is the swagger, individualistic character, Sebastian Ingrosso the most stable, funny guy and Axwell forms the heart and glue of the group. A lot of scenes make it obvious why the Swedish House Mafia couldn't stick and why luxury hotels, private jets and nice cars won't bend a negative attitude.Sadness comes to mind when you need to capture the one and a half hour in a word, however it's something of a frustrating, beautiful sadness.
