    One sided

    This movie is very one-sided, most of the witnesses they have seem really sketchy. This seems like a documentary just to sabotage his career because he is successful. These women here all seem like groupies. There's no backstory about what made him take these actions. No one just acts out for no reason, although that is no excuse. We need the whole story. This seems like a smear campaign. It was said that Brianna put hands on him first, although it is not OK for me to hit a woman this information should have been added because they are making it seem like he just started beating her for no reason. This seems like they are out to get Chris and this particular documentary. Very disappointing that people are putting this type of smear campaign out, shame on HBO Max.

    Absolutely ridiculous "docu"

    A lot of black youth have had a run in with the law. But to make a whole documentary about it is just milking it way too far. This man's dedication has brought him to superstar level and he imploys and support so many others people. It's a multimillion dollar business he set up. Leave that man alone and his mistakes in the past. We all made mistakes and learned from it. This documentary, is ridiculous.

    Informative and Important

    Chris Brown is a man who should no longer have a career and yet is still selling out stadiums and possibly harming more people. After he beat Rhianna I knew I would never look at him the same. He is a hateful person who will apologize with no sincerity so that he can continue to make money and fuel his ego.

    I am happy this documentary exists so that more people can be reminded of who this man is. When someone shows you who they are believe them. He is a charming master manipulator and I hope this will help more people who are victims feels less alone, and hopefully protect people from him in the future.

    Unnecessary

    Just simply not needed.

    I feel like people know his story. He has been heavily criticised and even ban from countries and award shows and so on because of his history. Maybe they should do a documentary of the history of violence of politicians? People who have committed crimes yet have power in government.

    Also the information provided has been discredited already. So they're just repeating stuff that has been discredited, debunked, and disproven even in a court setting. Documentaries should be balanced, and if they present an accusation they should present all the proof that refutes the accusation. This Documentary doesn't. It's just biased and one sided.

    If this documentary was true, he would serve life in prison!

    If this documentary was true, he would serve life in prison. He had plenty years of probation which would automatically send him to prison.

    It's just accusations nothing else, he even sued some of the girls, some girls have been exposed lying by TMZ and his team.

    This just contains lies and the and goal is to make him look bad.

    Chris has moved on, with his kids and sells out arena's they try to get in between all of that and try to portray something his is not.

    There is worse people/celebrities out there that no one talks about it gets sweept under the rug.

    The inconsistency is absurd........
