Chiefsaholic: Un lupo nei panni dei Chiefs

Interesting movie. It was nice how it told the version as people saw it from multiple angles, from the police, detectives, bondsman, tellers, etc. It spent a lot of time on the bondsman, Michael Lloyd, Seemed like he was working harder to catch Xaviar Babudar, than the police. Maybe the police couldn't offer much screen time since other crimes don't stop just because you're on a bank robber case.

I almost liked watching live reactions from Xaviar more than seeing a game. Hell, he should have had his own Youtube from the get go, he might have made millions in ad revenue.

I went into this not knowing anything about his story. I have a best friend loves the Chiefs so we watched it together. One of the most interesting / fun movies I've seen in 2024.

I hope there's a follow up, with more input from the detectives, lawyers, and Xaviar.

Brainless people defending a criminal for the only reason of being a football fan. What can be more stupid ( American) than that?..

Chiefsaholic dives into the bizarre intersection of sports fandom and criminality, highlighting the blind loyalty of some football fans. The documentary paints a stark picture of brainless idolization, where fans defend a criminal solely because of shared team allegiance. This absurdity, emblematic of certain American extremes, prompts viewers to question the boundaries of devotion. While the subject is captivating, the narrative exposes a culture where rationality is discarded in favor of tribal loyalty. A sharp critique of misplaced priorities, it's equal parts fascinating and frustrating.

Many people reviewing this movie seem to be making harsh judgments because it seems to me they don't like the characters in this film."The worst of America", I believe is what one reviewer stated. I disagree. I loved every perfectly imperfect person who braved to let their real lives shine through so this truly wild and tragic story could be told.

The protagonist, Xaviar-a young narcissist who comes into this crazy life of crime almost naturally was vulgar and loud and totally full of it- but if you consider his history and the fact that this was the only way he knew that could support his elderly mother and disabled brother you garner a bit of empathy for the big lug. Plus you can't deny that his actions made for a pretty stellar pilot twist.

Peyton, the bank teller who Xaviar robbed was so brave to tell her story when she was visibly shaking and clearly still very affected by the trauma she endured. And Xavier's lawyer, Matthew Merryman was the cutest and sweetest seeming man. I noticed a pencil holder in his desk in one shot that looked as if one of his children made it- and the full sleeve of tattoos, I mean, how against type is that? It's so great.

Let's not forget the star of the film, Michael Lloyd. He was as animated of a character that you could ask for. He was charming and funny at times, and his energy simply bounced off the screen. The dichotomy between the two scenes that stick out in my mind of him of him apprehending a man with zip ties vs him bailing out Xavier because he felt like this guy needed a break I find fascinating and make him lovable.

It is clear to me how much care was taken when putting this film together. Each scene flows into the next seamlessly, with a score layered on top that supports the tone of the scene propelling it forward with such an ease it would seem that the movie and the tunes couldn't exist without one another. If you love film, you can't go wrong by watching ChiefsAholic. As a hillbilly from the Red Kingdom turned liberal city slicker, I give this film two very enthusiastic thumbs up. Let's go Chiefs!

Funny to watch d bags and the way they live when they claim they are a big fan.

But does he think he's getting away with all of this while his bond bailsman tries to fool us with the toupee?

The story was fun and it was entertaining. Too many people cursing on purpose because the camera is on them? The real stars of this show are the other people who think and "get sick" because they can't find the Wolf dude? Lots of head scratching. Also it's funny to see the fans who probably before before the chiefs won a Super Bowl, were just normal New England fans, and now Brady is gone, these people chose the Chiefs. Entertaining.

Pause if you think this "documentary" is a fascinating story about a football fan who dresses like a wolf, committing crime. Here's a more accurate breakdown of this waste of time:

15 minutes: A dork with braces likes the Chiefs and dresses like a moron.

15 more minutes: The bail bondsman is hungry when he gets dork out of jail, they seem to fall in love.

20 more minutes: The dork likes to make sports bets so let's hear him talk about bets and then watch him watching TV (I know, exciting, right?).

15 more minutes: Footage of dork driving a vehicle while talking about him being a football fan.

15 more minutes: The dork is real nervous about the upcoming Super Bowl.

10 more minutes: The dork talks about how his family could use the money if he wins two big bets, despite evidently being homeless.

**Notice we haven't discussed ANYTHING to do with a crime yet.

10 more minutes: The Chiefs played the Eagles in a Super Bowl (not the one the lost in 2025, but a different one).

10 more minutes: This 30-something nerd with braces has a crush on an NFL quarterback and his fat coach.

10 more minutes: Let's watch the dork yell at the TV while watching the Super Bowl.

This about covers it. If this "documentary" was boiled down to the time actually discussing this "big crime" it would be a 10-minute infomercial.

Oh, and I hope you love shaky, dizzying camera movements by an amateur videographer. It's enough to give you vertigo.

This thing is a waste of time. Just do an online search for a story about this crime and you'll know way more than you would from watching this scam of a movie.
