Wanted to like it but found the acting slap dash unconvincing and going through the motions . Really poor reboot . The gothic aura wasn't there and I'm fully aware that it's hard to replicate a cult classic . I know there's a writers strike but still this really never ignited and caught alight. Just really lacked authentic performances and credible acting . I think next time get an unknown involved and take the neo realist approach and create something really special on half the budget . The last part of it was a mish mash of tartan Asia extreme dvds from the early noughties . Went in with some expectation and left with none.
This documentary is a brilliant insight into the mind of a champion . I love Ronnie as a snooker player but he's had to battle personal torment and the press to succeed . Masterful documentary that feed like an asif kapadia masterpiece . Well done all involved . 7 heaven ! It'll be a rollercoaster ride of emotions with ups and downs and at times difficult viewing . What I love about this production is that it doesn't romanticise or sanitise professional sports and everything that comes with . Best insight into human nature I've seen in a sporting documentary for a helluva long time . Perhaps the greatest sportsman of all time outside of Donald bradman.
