What to Know

Critics Consensus

This unauthorized biopic of The Baddest Man on the Planet is undeniably ambitious as it weighs the legendary boxer's many contradictions, but it ultimately punches itself out with uneven execution.

It doesn’t take very long for “Mike” to really go off the rails. Go to Full Review Louis Chilton Independent (UK) 09/08/2022
3/5
Not a knockout, that’s for sure. Call it a respectable loss on points. No biting involved. Go to Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) 09/08/2022
3/5
It is efficiently made and superficially entertaining, as the drama whips along in half-hour episodes, which neatly divide phases of Tyson’s life. Go to Full Review Chris Wasser Irish Independent 09/14/2022
The Mike Tyson story is a tricky one to tell. If it was a work of fiction, you’d call it far-fetched. Yet Mike, the unauthorised Mike Tyson screen story, tells it with all the dramatic flair of a Wikipedia entry. Go to Full Review Keith Watson metro.co.uk 09/09/2022
Trevante Rhodes looks the real deal as Tyson in this eight-part drama but the script shadowboxes around his flaws. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Raj S @RT96723591 03/05/2024 It was not as bad as the reviews and Trevante captured the essence of Tyson See more Cristian s @cristiansj 04/19/2023 Horrible, sencillamente mala. La típica de soy chorro, borracho, drogadicto y violín pero es culpa de la sociedad. Esta hecha deliberadamente para que el espectador odie al protagonista, otra no hay. See more Brandon S @RT52469086 11/10/2022 The key word everyone is missing here is unbiased. Mike would most likely leave out some very controversial moments in life. Mike is celebrated now because he loathes about all of the mistakes he's made. Just as Mike has been taken advantage of we forget the people he's taken advantage of and if his story played out in the present he would be cancelled. I appreciated the brutal honesty in this show and though not perfect it left no stone unturned. See more Michael W @mawilps 10/16/2022 This miniseries was pretty good. Trevante Rhodes, Russell Hornsby, Laura Harrier, Harvey Keitel, and the rest of the cast did a pretty good job in this miniseries. This true story about one of the greatest heavyweight champions was dramatic, tragic, and unbelievable. It's about going from nothing to something and taking it all for granted, but later you realize that you need to make changes in order to get your life back in order. If you're a Hulu member, you should watch this miniseries sometime. Don't pay attention to the terrible reviews this series is getting, those people have terrible tastes. It's worth watching. See more Scott N @RT62559353 10/04/2022 A good watch. The performace of Mike is incredible. This is a docudrama and uses Mikes stage play as an achor to tell the story. If you're interested in mike tysons story then you will enjoy this See more Paul T @Thebritwhocares 09/21/2022 An pacing mess show what a disappointing show Here is My Review of Mike https://youtu.be/ag3Ra4z_LuA See more Read all reviews
