The most I can say about the way this documentary was pieced together is, it really makes Johnny look just how everyone sees him: A kid whose parents are 100% the reason Johnny ended up the way he did in life; parents letting Johnny do whatever he wants, and parents who would lie and be unethical to help their kid advance his way through life rather than force change and take accountability. I wonder if the parents are that tone deaf to even realize how badly they came off in this documentary.
For those familiar with Manziel and his story, this documentary offers little in terms of new material. At best, it just reaffirms suspicions most college football fans had about the rampant drinking, partying, alcohol, and improper benefits. The construction of this documentary was poorly laid out. Manziel's lightning-in-the-bottle, SEC record setting freshman season at Texas A&M was glossed over in less than 10 minutes of total content to pave way for the longer, drawn-out story of improper benefits (selling autographs). Scheming sobriety for the draft was a large portion of the film, as well. Manziel's season with the Cleveland Browns and his performance meltdown was incredibly terse, choosing to highlight battles off-field rather than on-field performances. About 90% of this documentary was solely focused on improper benefits and Johnny's addictions. What happened after Johnny's time with the Browns is completely omitted, as if it never even happened, including getting kicked out of the CFL.
The only way I'd tell someone to watch this documentary is if they needed help clearing their conscious, so that they don't feel any empathy toward the Manziel's...
