Jan 1, 2022 First Jake is/was amazing.Im a skier not a snowboarder but it was with the watch. Especially the last third of this film detailing his heath issues is by far the most redeeming part of the film. Im glad I watched it, as with most docs it gave me access to a world I am not overly familiar with. Now to the 'meh' Whoever directed the interviews - the lighting, appearance etc. should go back to YouTube 101 school. Yes the sound bites were there but the cartoonish, garnish set up should be on HBO's ' Top 10 way to NOT shoot interviews' list. See more Read all reviews
