447056, I think the fact that his trials & triumphs are so well-documented Posted by Bombastic, Sun Apr-19-09 01:19 PM
kinda works against any new film being an 'eye-opener' to the already initiated.
I mean personally there wasn't anything really revelatory in the doc but I still found it thoroughly entertaining because well, Mike is thoroughly entertaining. I guess it would have been more well-rounded if they had interview footage with more than just Mike but I'm guessing Toback's feeling was he'd make a film from Mike's perspective the focus rather than try to do a 'balanced' portrayal and really we've had those previously.
