a movie about no record, lasers, corny montages and how far you can get while being untalented and ridley scotts son

Warning: Spoilers
Rarely i have seen such amateurish montages like where a sea o Africans on the street are supposed to be reacting all impressed to fake reporter voice overs, and the scifi sport effort is again pathetically underlined by a lady using a computer mouse, yes a computer mouse, and yes she clicks on it, with again more montages and hyping music like in a 2nd class razor blades advertisement. That alone was simply pathetic in one word.

Somehow the audience is to be interested in a marathon that is no marathon recognized by any organization with more than good reason, and which is technically so enhanced that the very thing it tries to achieve is disproven by all the effort undertaken to achieve the record. If runners taking wind resistance ahead and lasers improving the trajectory are needed to run in under a time that has not been achieved by runners without all this ridiculous help, then obviously nothing has been achieved or proven. Its as interesting as showing someone beating the sleeping record after being taken into an artificial coma by an Anesthesiologist.

Seeing the universal logo on the beginning of such an untalented effort can only be explained by the last name of the director and all the nepotism that must have been applied to this bad excuse of a documentary.

Also and not at least the documentary has no charm soul and can, if even, only be liked by marathon runners which i highly doubt. I also would have maybe , only maybe , have included in a documentary how fricking long a Marathon is!!! God beware us from more work from whoever scott junior.

How many talented scripts producers and directors has Universal waved off to give priority to this annoying piece of nothingness or kind of pay back-a favour-event to ridley scott?
