When I first heard the news of a Mike Tyson documentary coming to fruition it instantly created a huge amount of expectation and anticipation. Director James Toback creates what is certain to be a really impressive portrait of the often troubled boxer by depicting his life story. Combining archival footage with current interviews creating a really well balanced look at Tyson dating back to his early days in Brooklyn finding his ground as a boxer to his current habitat which has radically spurned his status as an elite athlete.
