The personality-forward approach to the storytelling makes every episode exceptionally compelling, humanizing the God-like figures of our childhood.
It’s five episodes that feel truth-adjacent more than true. If the 30 for 30 film was about a quest for some elusive truth, however far afield it takes you, the Netflix documentary is about embracing the tall tale even if it feels reductive or simplistic.
