Martha is a BOSS! People just can't handle that she's a beautiful, self-owned woman -- and is more successful in business than most men. This doc made me love you MORE, Martha!!!!
All my life, Martha Stewart was the gold standard in all things domestic. From decor, cooking, gardening, crafts...she held the blueprint like no other. My whole house was painted 30 years ago in Martha Stewart paint colors that complement each other...still love them & wont be changing them...thanks, Martha!
So many people are lazy, give up on life, and themselves as they get older, settle for less throughout life……NOT Martha!! She is an inspiration to all that desire more in life than the bare minimum!
It is a great documentary. If Martha is upset it’s because she’s use to being in control plus a perfectionist! She’s driven, successful. Showing her past mistakes is good everyone has them.
I’m just now starting to watch Martha Stewart cooking videos! It’s like having my mom still with me!! I really enjoyed the Netflix doc however the trial portion was long and drawn out forcing me to skip over much of it!! Would have loved to hear/ see more of this amazing lady and her exciting adventures!!
Never a fan; but after watching the documentary, I absolutely respect and admire her. Is she a pill and a diva? I'm guessing, but above all she is a teacher who sought to raise the bar and reach as many people as she could. Every person is entitled to improvement and loveliness and good food and something nice in their life.
Martha thank you for being whom you are It’s empowering and inspiring watching you grow It’s just amazing what you did for all of us women in this mens world I am sorry you had to go through the pain and injustice Thank you for your sacrifice You are a true inspiration
Like the way she glosses over her cheating because he didn't know. Why didn't she make her own doc and control it. She comes off smart and snotty. She came by her reputation as queen of mean honestly, and yes women are judged more harshly. But a mean boss does their damage male or female.
I saw the movie last evening and felt very inspired by it because it showed me what qualities and skills one needs to have to be able to successfully navigate situations of extreme adversity with confidence and grace. I feel I have not been able to do this in my own life, but would very much like to. My favorite part was when she had a party with the ladies at the prison and cucumber sandwiches were served. And - I thought the limp was her walking through the garden on a cold fall morning. I thought nothing of it.
I saw the film and I am impressed with Martha's personality and human values! I thought I was the one who passed difficult times with liers and false friends, through legal disputes and business international and global cheaters... Congratulations Martha for what you managed to carry on your shoulders...I would like to meet you...God bless!
It is a wonderful documentary of a woman who is super talented and was smart enough to use her talents to get where she is. I understood that less successful men would want to bring her down because they were envious of her. Martha has nothing to regret about this film.
I loved the documentary. Martha is an icon but also a woman who overcame the traps, pitfalls and double standard of being a successful business woman in a mans world.
$&(? Anyone that doesn’t understand what a powerhouse woman like you goes through! Know that you are a Beacon for women like me, who also look to disrupt an industry! You are my hero! Always! Love who you were then and now! My hero in sooooo many ways. Thank you!
I do agree the film/documentary focused far too long on the trial - which I finally found I had to skip past portions of & too little time on her building the magazine when at Time/Warner & too little time in her creating Martha Steward Omnimedia & then too little time on her return to her company & those challenges: the sale of her brand to a marketing conglomerate was only glanced over. This woman essentially built a brand that still has relevance even if it has dimmed a bit & honestly I think the company which controls her brand doesn't really understand what they purchased & the power of that brand. There is still a definitive documentary to be made about Martha Steward. I think the filmmaker dropped the ball not to point out the obvious misogny of James Comey by mentioning his involvement in undermining another powerful woman - Hillary Clinton. What the documentary only really floats over is the deep sexism of the world Martha Stewart navigated her way through & is still navigating her way through. Martha deserves a more comprehensive documentary.
She should’ve been a producer on it. I thought the documentary was good but I imagine it would’ve been even better if she would’ve had creative control.
I thought it was good. I admire her far more now than I did before. She is an amazing person and so much of what we all take as normal today, she brought it into being the only way. Renovations, repurposing, enjoying the processes, enjoying food and the preparation and prevention of sharing it with family and friends. Would any of the people on HGTV exist today if not for her? Food Network? Most definitely I say no! She has given us permission to not do everything like everyone else. Most have become a paper plate and plastic fork generation. Never in my house, thanks to Martha.
She hit a market that was in lack for interior design and stuck pure gold. She was born at the right time with a very strict upbringing. The market is saturated now so she better be glad of her success. I think it reflected good of her, she seems cold and not very warm, money is her devil
I find it ironic that she says he saved herself from being a housewife, and she builds her empire by teaching the women of the world how to excel in all thjngs housewifey...cooking, tablescaping, gardening, decorating, she even touches upon cleaning and home organization.
We are missing pieces of that pie. If she had given him total control in the contract, then she has nothing to gripe about. I think we are missing somethings here.
I agree with her. They made her seem like this old woman who’s resigned herself to living the rest of her life in solitude, picking out anything red from her garden. She is a BOSS, and they focused on her downfall more than anything.
I thought it was great, and she's an inspiration. That said.. I can understand why she had some issues with it. Anytime she thought the camera wasn't rolling.. she was, let's just say.. less than friendly to her staff.
Martha has accomplished a lot and has a lot to teach us. I liked the documentary, but I didn’t enjoy her negative attitude and her lack of kindness. Even in recent days she made an uncalled for , unkind comment that Ryan Reynolds’s isn’t funny in real life. Guess what Martha, an actor is paid to perform his job; he doesn’t need to turn on the charm for everyday life.
Martha is a perfectionist. She even admits that. I don’t think anyone could’ve done her justice. Of course the focus was going to be MARTHA GOING TO FEDERAL PRISON 🙄 What else do people care about - making curtains?! I mean cmon!! 😂
So she wanted a propaganda documentary and she didn’t get the image she wanted to present. Doesn’t matter that just two years of her life was about something wrong she did , its still shows the actions of someone no one should have trusted. She blames her husband for cheating, she did the same, what lying hypocrite
Go Martha x stick it to them. Why put up with rubbish. I saw a lot of awkward shots that came out close to tacky didn’t think it was real Martha style.
Well, she has a lot of money and so should have made her own movie to her own perfection. I certainly won't be watching a movie about how controlling she is. Sorry!!
Martha never gives any credit for any of her sucess to all the thousands of employees who helped her achieve her dreams, fame & wealth. Shameful. There is NO way she would have succeeded to the hight she did without all her hard working employees & management team. Give them credit Martha!
Martha! It was a great documentary. I loved you even more after seeing it
Martha is a BOSS! People just can't handle that she's a beautiful, self-owned woman -- and is more successful in business than most men. This doc made me love you MORE, Martha!!!!
I totally agree with you
Yea and it’s BIG money that she made. This is a self made accomplished woman that made it to the top. Everyone needs to listen to her.
All my life, Martha Stewart was the gold standard in all things domestic. From decor, cooking, gardening, crafts...she held the blueprint like no other. My whole house was painted 30 years ago in Martha Stewart paint colors that complement each other...still love them & wont be changing them...thanks, Martha!
Personally, I loved the documentary. It was marvelously written!
She's too much of a perfectionist. Of course she's going to be critical.
lol her critique is perfect. Very on brand.
Loved her Documentary,she looks amazing.
So many people are lazy, give up on life, and themselves as they get older, settle for less throughout life……NOT Martha!! She is an inspiration to all that desire more in life than the bare minimum!
I thought the documentary was great. Honest and genuine.
Just watched it on Wed. I love it and have an incredible respect for Martha, ever since I was a child and that hasn’t changed.
It is a great documentary. If Martha is upset it’s because she’s use to being in control plus a perfectionist! She’s driven, successful. Showing her past mistakes is good everyone has them.
You look amazing Martha and we loved your story. You are a strong woman and quite amazing! I only wish I could meet you.
Great Documentary- always loved Martha, still love Martha and wish Martha the best. She is a tru American success story - Americana!
She really is a perfectionist! Honey you look fine!!! It was very authentic and real. I loved it!
I’m just now starting to watch Martha Stewart cooking videos! It’s like having my mom still with me!! I really enjoyed the Netflix doc however the trial portion was long and drawn out forcing me to skip over much of it!! Would have loved to hear/ see more of this amazing lady and her exciting adventures!!
I liked it a lot! Positive review here! Martha is portrayed as a strong resilient, honest, put together woman!
Never a fan; but after watching the documentary, I absolutely respect and admire her. Is she a pill and a diva? I'm guessing, but above all she is a teacher who sought to raise the bar and reach as many people as she could. Every person is entitled to improvement and loveliness and good food and something nice in their life.
Martha thank you for being whom you are
It’s empowering and inspiring watching you grow
It’s just amazing what you did for all of us women in this mens world
I am sorry you had to go through the pain and injustice
Thank you for your sacrifice
You are a true inspiration
I’ve never had ANY interest in Martha, but the Doc was stunning. Truly well done. Of course she doesn’t like it, that tracks with her brand 😂❤
I have all the respect in the world for Martha Stewart.
I throughly enjoyed it. It was amazing!
Loved the documentary🥰
Love Martha!
I liked the documentary and it made me gain even more respect for her.
Like the way she glosses over her cheating because he didn't know. Why didn't she make her own doc and control it. She comes off smart and snotty. She came by her reputation as queen of mean honestly, and yes women are judged more harshly. But a mean boss does their damage male or female.
You look fantastic Martha! 💙
Must Watch!! Incredible life that influence every women ❤
Love you Martha. You go girl

And - I thought the limp was her walking through the garden on a cold fall morning. I thought nothing of it.
We love you Martha even more now. My childhood had you and my teenage years and I love it that you inspired so much ❤
I saw the film and I am impressed with Martha's personality and human values!
I thought I was the one who passed difficult times with liers and false friends, through legal disputes and business international and global cheaters...
Congratulations Martha for what you managed to carry on your shoulders...I would like to meet you...God bless!
Spoken like a true perfectionist hostess.
That’s why u have to be credited as a producer. Then u get final say over your portrayal
Martha Stewart is The Gold Standard 🏆
It is a wonderful documentary of a woman who is super talented and was smart enough to use her talents to get where she is. I understood that less successful men would want to bring her down because they were envious of her. Martha has nothing to regret about this film.
She’s 83. And upset that she looks old? 🙄
I've been a fan since she went to jail and handled it so beautifully!
I agree with Martha. I’m a big fan of hers😊💖
I loved the documentary. Martha is an icon but also a woman who overcame the traps, pitfalls and double standard of being a successful business woman in a mans world.
$&(? Anyone that doesn’t understand what a powerhouse woman like you goes through! Know that you are a Beacon for women like me, who also look to disrupt an industry! You are my hero! Always! Love who you were then and now! My hero in sooooo many ways. Thank you!
She is a great role model. Of course she would have made a better movie because that is her brand: success.
Martha is great but that documentary was sloppy work, in a technical standpoint is was poorly done. I hope she does another. Could have been epic.
I do agree the film/documentary focused far too long on the trial - which I finally found I had to skip past portions of & too little time on her building the magazine when at Time/Warner & too little time in her creating Martha Steward Omnimedia & then too little time on her return to her company & those challenges: the sale of her brand to a marketing conglomerate was only glanced over.

What the documentary only really floats over is the deep sexism of the world Martha Stewart navigated her way through & is still navigating her way through. Martha deserves a more comprehensive documentary.
Savage! Love Martha
She better stop it! I loved it, and it made me fall in love with her more.
She is never going to be satisfied. She’s a perfectionist. However, she has very valid points.
i liked her even more.
I watched it and I agree it shows us female empowerment. After all watching it, I like her more.
I see more and more our society accepting almost as good enough thank goodness for perfectionist
She should’ve been a producer on it. I thought the documentary was good but I imagine it would’ve been even better if she would’ve had creative control.
I thought it was good. I admire her far more now than I did before. She is an amazing person and so much of what we all take as normal today, she brought it into being the only way.

Never in my house, thanks to Martha.
Go Martha!
WTH! How did she escape from the federal prison?
Would love to see the “Martha edit”
It was a great doc. If you watched it, you understand why she needs to control everything. She is definitely her father's daughter.
She hit a market that was in lack for interior design and stuck pure gold. She was born at the right time with a very strict upbringing. The market is saturated now so she better be glad of her success. I think it reflected good of her, she seems cold and not very warm, money is her devil
I thought is was great. It made her way more human.
Why did she give the documentary maker complete autonomy knowing she’s a complete control freak.
I thought it was a flattering portrayal and a good doc.
man are not used to been bossed by a smart powerful women and that is why she is succesful, we live that reality in the whole world sadly
Unless you are the producer and have some say over the final cut of the documentary you don’t have much say, I surprised she didn’t 🤔
I find it ironic that she says he saved herself from being a housewife, and she builds her empire by teaching the women of the world how to excel in all thjngs housewifey...cooking, tablescaping, gardening, decorating, she even touches upon cleaning and home organization.
I can tell Martha Stewart is how you doing?
We are missing pieces of that pie. If she had given him total control in the contract, then she has nothing to gripe about. I think we are missing somethings here.
It always the way when celebrities do these documentaries and then cry foul. The money must be not enough in her bank account from Netflix .
Get Over It Martha! ,, True Appearances Comes with all the Fame ,and Money, You Can't stay young and Beautiful Forever 😢
So, she can cheat BUT 🙄
I agree with her. They made her seem like this old woman who’s resigned herself to living the rest of her life in solitude, picking out anything red from her garden. She is a BOSS, and they focused on her downfall more than anything.
That wasn’t my take away, her resilience is astounding and aspirational.
Martha 😂❤
I thought it was great, and she's an inspiration. That said.. I can understand why she had some issues with it. Anytime she thought the camera wasn't rolling.. she was, let's just say.. less than friendly to her staff.
I agree- way too much time spent on the trial and prison sentence
Martha has accomplished a lot and has a lot to teach us. I liked the documentary, but I didn’t enjoy her negative attitude and her lack of kindness. Even in recent days she made an uncalled for , unkind comment that Ryan Reynolds’s isn’t funny in real life. Guess what Martha, an actor is paid to perform his job; he doesn’t need to turn on the charm for everyday life.
I loved the documentary, but as I was watching it, I knew she was going to have issues!!
I agree with every one of Stewart's observations on the filmmaker's lousy job.
"Offer it up," Martha, offer it up. (Catholic prayer). You just blessed so many people! I can see myself in you. ❤
Netflix survives on the nasty stuff. Look at all the different things that make people look nasty.
Narcissist
Loved the doc, and "vacation"? I think not. Anyone, man or woman who becomes so successful is generally not a nice person.
Publicity stun
What? I thought it was a great doc
Martha is a perfectionist. She even admits that. I don’t think anyone could’ve done her justice. Of course the focus was going to be MARTHA GOING TO FEDERAL PRISON 🙄 What else do people care about - making curtains?! I mean cmon!! 😂
Vaaaaaain. Unless she's a producer she doesn't have a say on the certain aspects o production
Martha Stewart "charcuterie" 🎉
She is a true narcissist. This doc really shows it.
@0:51 But you are an old lady... Face it.
So she wanted a propaganda documentary and she didn’t get the image she wanted to present. Doesn’t matter that just two years of her life was about something wrong she did , its still shows the actions of someone no one should have trusted. She blames her husband for cheating, she did the same, what lying hypocrite
umm why did she give him the liberty to do what he wants. no prodecer rights for her?
What did she expect?
Go Martha x stick it to them. Why put up with rubbish. I saw a lot of awkward shots that came out close to tacky didn’t think it was real Martha style.
Well, she has a lot of money and so should have made her own movie to her own perfection. I certainly won't be watching a movie about how controlling she is. Sorry!!
The music was lame they could've did better
🥱
SUCH ARROGANCE!!!
She isn't arrogant she worked hard she gave them a look in her life and they made her out to be a villain. She is human
@@Hedoneo0I don’t think it made her out to be a villain, it made her out to be a fallible human being.
Martha never gives any credit for any of her sucess to all the thousands of employees who helped her achieve her dreams, fame & wealth.
Shameful.
There is NO way she would have succeeded to the hight she did without all her hard working employees & management team.
Give them credit Martha!
