See more Navi H @RT03440638 09/02/2023 Great story but the movie is incredibly boring and the script is atrocious. See more John B @RT17595747 06/03/2023 I enjoyed this one and the story that it told us about the great surgeon Ben Carson and how he came to be from early life growing up with his mother guiding the way. Good cast with Cuba Gooding as Ben to bring the story to life was great also and added to enjoyment of the story. See more s r @ScottR 09/01/2022 An important story that was never fully recognized because of politics. It's a shame, because it was entertaining and fascinating despite its adequate direction and editing. Regardless, Ben Carson accomplished great things and this film probably only tells the big stories. It was on Netflix. See more Read all reviews
