This first installment in Netflix's docuseries, 'UNTOLD' offers a wild rewind back to the infamous basketball brawl known as the Malice in the Palace between the Detroit Pistons and the Indiana Pacers. Whether you remember it or weren't born yet this documentary will give you a give quick fill-in for the background and incident.
However as entertaining as it is, the documentary does feel in-complete or maybe half-baked. Like there is a big set-up and they try to wrap it up but it feels too light in comparison to the actual events and lasting impact in the NBA.
Its for sure worth a watch for any NBA fan or anyone who is interested in the dynamic between fans and athletes!

'The Union' (2011) is underrated like Leon Russell. If you are a fan of Leon Russel or Elton John this documentary covering the making of the duo's "The Union" album this film is for you. Over ten years later (2023) this film like the album has remained an underrated classic for both of the artists long careers.
Its shot in a making of an album style as you see the album be created from start to finish. Elton John helps lead the way, but this film/album would be nothing without Leon Russell. Leon Russell remains underrated to this day despite he immense legacy and credit work since the 1960s.
Its for sure watching if you want to see someone work with their idol and if you want to see someone (Leon Russell) come back to life after a long retreat from the public spotlight.

'Greyhound' (2020) is action-packed despite its short film length and absolutely deserved a proper theatrical release. This film is set through the eyes of the Commander Ernie Krause (Tom Hanks) and his first but intense mission protecting ships from German U-boats. This film properly pays tribute to sailors and those who have been in battles in that there is little time to rest before the next challenge. And also gives a good perspective on just how traumatizing war can be especially if its your first time.
The film is filled with technical jargon but clarifications are properly given when necessary either verbally or with on-screen text. The loneliness of the Commander is shown as decisions must be made quickly, carefully, and without thought.
While this is a story about a destroyer, "Greyhound", it is more of a story of one man and his job. Its great. And deserves so much more recognition and a proper rerelease in theaters one day!
