The documentary was much better.


Not sure why they changed so much when they made this version. It's not nearly as funny and is much more dramatic than the doc. The really funny parts are played much more seriously, and the added subplots are too personal and really bring the movie down.

We don't get to know them like we did in the doc, and the stuff that was hilarious and full of character is gone. This version focused way too much on GJ and his life, when he's really not the most interesting part at all.

The doc was a riot and worth 8 or 9 out of 10 because they're such characters and are full of it. This is too serious and is closer to a 6/10.
