      Brett P I knew almost nothing about Nick Buoniconti. All I knew is that he was a very successful football player that was a part of one of the greatest football teams ever. This documentary taught me so much about not only his football story, but his life story and the amount he accomplished in his life. It was a beautiful story from beginning to end. My only knock on this documentary is that it rushes through his football story. That is a major part of his life and they barely tell you anything about it. RIP to an NFL legend. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Fascinating tale about a truly amazing life. It's also expertly woven together and doesn't sugar coat any of the harsh realities surrounding football. Really good watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The Many Lives of Nick Buoniconti ought to be called The Many Lies of Nick Buoniconti. This mockumentary seeks to humanize a tobacco industry executive who is responsible for killing MILLIONS of people. A man who bald-faced lied on 60 Minutes about the medical truths that come with tobacco use. He terrorized his employeesï¿ 1/2 belittled themï¿ 1/2 bullied everyone he ever met on an off the field, including his first wife of 35 years. If you look through the crap this excuse for a documentary seeks to pass off in an attempt to lionize at truly terrible human being, you should come away with the understanding that he has done everything in his life with himself and only himself in mind, including his work with the Buoniconti Fund. Surely the organization is doing good work, but Nick Buoniconti himself did it out of well-earned guilt for his treatment of his sons and pushing them to be football players like himself. This man is a self-centered CREEP. If you watch this documentary, look through the lines and see the truth of this rich, insolent megalomaniac whose only true concern is himself.

      Joel Keller Decider Anyone who knows Buoniconti will want to watch this, not only to find out about his multi-faceted life, but to see that he's still a fighter, even as his health declines. Feb 14, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
