Yo Robin...We Did It!!!

Tyson (2008) Rating: R

This is a documentary on Ex Heavyweight Boxing Champ Mike Tyson. It was an interesting watch, but since one of the producers was Tyson himself, it almost came across as though the questions/things talked about, were approved by him. Sure they touch on his relationship with Robin Givens, and later on the rape trial and conviction. But the problem I had with it all is that it was only his take on things. The director never takes the time out to talk with anyone else involved. So even though it was fascinating, and had clips of some of his best (and not so) matches, it was a very one sided documentary. I was also a bit annoyed at the fact that he would admit to "messing" up in certain situations...but then giving an excuse. I would've much rather seen him admitting his mistake and leaving it at that. No excuses, "I fucked up" sorta thing.
