'FYRE' Review (Netflix Original). by Jak-Luke Sharp. Netflix latest investigative documentary FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened examines the outrageously unbelievable tale of Billy McFarland's FYRE Festival scandal in 2017. A festival that promised golden beaches, clear blue water, yacht …s, supermodels and luxury villas of which resulted in tens of thousand attendees left stranded with no water, no power, no beds and no festival to attend and they couldn't even get off the island..

Of which are edited and intercut with stylish office workers ranging from Yoga instructors and influencers who revel in the absurdity only to transition to the devasting financial impact on the locals who have little to nothing left.. Those who have lost far more than a week in the Bahamas and Ins… (Read More)
