carlrooney-222-956794 I've loved Mike Tyson the boxer from the very 1st time I remember watching him during my tennage years back in the nineties. I'm from a rural town in England a million miles from Brooklyn New York and a million miles from the "gutter" as Mike would call it. To this day the media in the UK does its best to put people up on high down to the depths of despair and Mike alike so many others was never portraid to be anything other than an "animal" from my memory. IgNorant to media I could care less and ignored bad publicity because in my eyes Mike was a phenom a unique once in a millennia gift from the so called God above. An unmatched raw talent with electric speed and god like power that instantly made me a fan and gradually in a short space of time would see him rise to the top of the tree in my own "best boxer" pecking order. Yet who is Mike Tyson, what was his life like and would the "baddest man on the planet" ever share his story. Luckily Yes and he has. Whether you want to or not there is a lot to like and in some love about Iron Mike and you will be pleasantly surprised in Mike,s one man show delivery that he seems to be a natural. There may be profrainity and there may be violence described (within moderation) but hearing the story from the man himself may put all those sad sad doubters to bed. 9/10
Yashua Kimbrough (jimniexperience) A stand-up comedy/biography into the life of Mike Tyson ; him growing up in Brooklyn, relations with his mother and childhood friends, his time in detention center and meeting his mentor, life with white fans, becoming the champ, dealing with losses of death, the Mo Green Story, his fall into cocaine and his retribution for his kids and livelihood ..I'm proud to say Mike Tyson is one of the last male role models alive , and he's grown into a wise man10/10
Jonathon Natsis Renowned sports fanatic, basketball tragic and occasional loudmouth Spike Lee swaps the hardwood of Madison Square Garden for the velvet curtains of Broadway, and Mike Tyson swaps sweaty mitts for a shiny mic in Undisputed Truth, a taping of one of Tyson's one-man shows in which he candidly shares the highs, lows, jokes and traumas of his colourful and exorbitant life.You don't earn this many nicknames without having a natural and all-consuming charisma and Mike Tyson, alias 'Iron Mike', alias 'Champ', alias 'The baddest man on the planet,' has it in droves. He tells the story the only way it can possibly be told, not with stereotypically bearded and bespectacled talking heads, or bland and well-worn archive footage, but with a youthful enthusiasm that truly captures the man he is: one with many faults but who oozes passion and a pursuit of excellence.Tyson's storytelling is a little sloppy and often erratic, but certainly never boring. Those looking for a well-balanced discussion of some of the most scrutinised moments of his life may find Undisputed Truth to be as shallow and self-serving as any predictable, studio-sanctioned biopic. But Iron Mike doesn't care. If he wants to explicitly denounce Don King, call his ex-wife a demonic, rabid golddigger or recall the time he didn't know what to do with Brad Pitt – the details of which are far too sordid for publication – then that's exactly what the Champ will do.His tale isn't all slander and street fights though, as some genuinely touching moments come through in his remembrance of fallen friends and family. If there was something admirable about the brash, violent young man who turned sheer rage into inconceivable success, then there's just as much to like about the reflective, repentant man he has become, both traits of which are displayed in equal measure in this engrossing narrative.*There's nothing I love more than a bit of feedback, good or bad. So drop me a line on [email protected] and let me know what you thought of my review. If you're looking for a writer for your movie website or other publication, I'd also love to hear from you.*
ziploked I'm not going to write a book about this movie--suffice it to say if you've ever heard of, or had an opinion of Mike Tyson, then you should see this. Mike tells his life story from his beginnings in Brooklyn up to the present day. Although laced with profanity, his story is at times funny, sad, happy, tragic, and yet in the end, hopeful. He's had his ups and many downs, but through it all he has come out of it a better person, father, and man.I always thought Mike Tyson was the most awesome boxer I ever saw. I'm glad to see he's finally become an awesome man, too.Definitely worth a watch.
