About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an upbeat, feel-good sports biography with lots of momentum and personality; Not for you if you want a deeply personalized portrait with stronger original-life footage, or if you prefer Maria By Callas or The Class of '92.

Pros: energetic, inspiring sports story; never-before-seen archive; entertaining off-track moments | Cons: expectations may be low; limited personal original materials; recreations don’t fully blend
