Michael Jordan to the Max

"Don't be afraid to try." After seeing this on the big screen, this critic felt somewhat cheated. The mere fact that it was not updated, it only features a few interviews but also the lack of views from "the supporting cast." A bunch of highlights and footages put together with documentary. His best-selling videos were even better than this. The best things about the documentary was you get too view "His Airness" at a much larger scale as if you were in the stadium during practices/games, Michael's determination and optimistic view of life. I have seen MJ, unfortunately as a Wizard. It was still a memorable and lifetime moment. Nothing beats live NBA action, this is the closest you can experience it. Nice to see a Jack Nicholson (LA fanatic but basetball enthusiast) and a comment from Bill Murray. Soundtrack was magnificent and commentaries were informative. One of the greatest basketball players deserves more than this featured film though. Even the last words on the documentary from him felt disappointing "there will be a better basketball player than me." Whether this will be true or not, his legacy as a basketball player/son/person will never be questionable and shall be remembered no matter how many years will pass by as a great person and the greatest to play the game.
