Carla Hay Culture Mix 03/26/2023
My Father Muhammad Ali is one of the most pathetic 'cash grab using a celebrity name' documentaries you could ever see. It's poorly edited rambling from Muhammad Ali Jr. feeling sorry for himself, because of this troubled son's personal problems. Go to Full Review Tom Santilli Movie Show Plus 01/13/2023

If you want to get to know Muhammad Ali, this is not the doc for you, and if you want to know what it was like to be his son, well, this film doesn't really do much to help us understand that either. Go to Full Review Hosea Rupprecht Pauline Media Studies 01/13/2023
That story just might provide a sense of hope for others who are experiencing dark times, no matter what they are. When one is suffering, it helps to know that one is not alone. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 01/12/2023
A mildly engaging, but meandering and mostly shallow documentary. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
