Tyson (2009)


I thought this movie was a very good look into the mind of a man who could have been the greatest boxer in history. The whole movie is basically an interview with "Iron" Mike Tyson and it even showcases highlights from every important boxing match in his career. You get to hear the desperation of a man that just wants to explain his side of the story from the loss to Buster Douglass, the rape conviction, failed marriage to Robin Givens, and the embarrassment of the rest of his career. They capture a very different side of Mike that nobody ever really gets to see and I think that is what makes this movie great. It kept me glued to my seat as I remembered what a great boxer he once was when I was little kid growing up to the baddest man on the planet. Believe me, you will be astonished by this man as you watch him. Four Stars Out Of Five
