Filmmaker and noted basketball fan Spike Lee presents a close-up look at a day in the life of one of the game's biggest stars in this documentary. Kobe Bryant is one of the top players on one of the NBA's top teams, the Los Angeles Lakers, and he receives the kind of adulation (and paychecks) that most folks will never experience. But for Bryant, playing basketball is a job like any other, and in Kobe Doin' Work he allows Lee and his camera crew to follow him through an ordinary business day. In

Despite some great game action and an in-depth narration from Bryant himself, the documentary falls into the trap of glitz and glamor distracting from the subject matter it's intending to celebrate.

For hoops junkies, this is a must-see picture, taking us inside the mind of one of the NBA's hardest-working, focused superstars.

You really have to like basketball to appreciate it. It's basically replaying a game with Kobe "mic'd" up and explaining how Lakers "do work". Shows Kobe's true leadership on the team. Wish there was more off the court footage.
