Just like DB Cooper, Colton Harris-Moore became an outlaw hero mainly because he was so elusive. Neither of them were violent offenders and they both used the wide blue yonder as their backdrop. Colton, being a mere teenager, who ran around barefoot, can pluck at the mother in us all. But, he did break into people's homes, which can be enough to unseat the feeling of safety in their own place. The presentation of this barefoot bandit's feats is well paced. I found this flick riveting, even the music parts are interesting. Colton broke out of his group home where he lived after his stint in juvie, and melted into the woods. He's all over cctv, when he wants to be. He steals cars, breaks into homes, steals boats, steals computers so he can have stuff sent to the very homes he stole from. Steals the stuff, learns to fly from the stuff, and then...he steals planes. He flies wherever he feels like it. How could he not become an antihero. It's an American recipe.

Amazing documentary a must see! joe Rogan needs to interview this kid

Warning: Spoilers
Why is nobody interviewing him now that he is out? A kid who taught himself to fly planes by reading books in the woods..who eluded the USA homeland security and FBI, barefooted!! The only reason he waa caught in bahamas is because he got bored and the island was small. This movie should be huge..and an interview with him should be done by JOE ROGAN....best documentary I've watched ever!
