Meet the man behind the hero.
His love of film began as an escape from a rocky childhood. From underdog to Hollywood legend, Sylvester Stallone tells his story in this documentary.

This is a good documentary. I like how Netflix tries to keep on the positive side of things. That said the story is hard to watch: a self-absorbed man, politically perfect, he could be on top forever and fail to feel the need of other people. It did teach me that we need to be careful of the packaging... other parts are more important.
