Mike

I learned alot more about Mike Tyson in this series. It makes alot more sense how Mike Tyson ended up broke. Starting from his child hood and losing alot early he did not have many role models and many people who actually cared for him. It seems almost everyone around him didn't have his best interest. But one thing there is Mike Tyson defenitley is someone to look up to in the process of being nothing to something.

All he really knew Is one thing and he grew up and became rich off that. It's funny you never know that one thing you're completely good at it could make you super rich and famous, over all this was a good series and the plot was always on point.

Forgot one minor detail this actor looks nothing like iron Mike ! Lol Only watch one episode it seems all right. Nothing to lose sleep over. I heard Mike Tyson was pissed off about it. That's why I had to watch it. Talks like him acts like him walks like him does not look like him whatsoever you think Hulu with a cat somebody who looks like Mike Tyson.//////////:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::;344444444444444444444444;;;;;;;;;;;;;$$)$$$$$'nnmmmmmmjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjhhhhhhhggggggggggggggggggggggyhhhjjjhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhbnbbbbbbbbbb.

I'm shocked by the terrible ratings and suspect half the people haven't even watched the show. The main actor does an excellent job of capturing the essence of Tyson and the first few episodes are pretty entertaining. My biggest knock on most biopics is how they allow the subject to influence the story which ultimately robs the movie/show of any authenticity. I love Mike Tyson and find him to be a compelling story teller, but allowing him to choose what goes in or out of this show would have been a mistake. If you're looking for garbage like that check out Bohemian Rhapsody, Ali, or Straight Out of Compton.

The first five minutes in I was thinking I may just turn it off and browse for another hour on what to watch next. The reason I felt this way is because the lead character didn't look like Tyson to me.....but let me tell you, he grows on you. His acting is really solid and he's built like Mike, which is not an easy task to have that physical stature. The way it's filmed, the acting, the music, the length of the episodes, are all great. I think they did a stand up job with this mini series. When each episode ended, I found myself looking forward to the next one, and the next one, until we reach the final round. Give it a shot.

The visual story telling is amazing using backdrops and on locations scenes in NYC. The beginning of the series adds a thin layer to what was already known about mike and what can be found in his book by taking keywords and dramatizing it but doesnt over do it. The kid that plays teen Tyson is amazing and looks just like him which is really suprising Otherwise I would aliken this series to another Pam and Tommy I feel like Hulu is trying to bank off. It gets saltier knowing that mike tyson didnt back this at all and seems like a money grab before the actual film by Scorsese does him justice. Although just being a carbon copy with less emphasis on actual boxing I like how they fill in the gaps in history by making well shot and put together scenes that add to the legacy, but we will see if it gets better or worse. Granted how much I already know about Mike's bio I find myself more interested in the fabled or made up scenes and imagery then the actual story.
