Ich war Paul Walker

I remember when I first heard this. like a bombshell. I was in my room, and heard the t,v. I thought my ears were horribly deceiving me. I flew off my bed, raced out into lounge. I was sort of devastated. How could something like this happen to Paul Walker, especially at this time, when his body of acting work, of late, was really becoming acknowledged. Check out Hours, Pawn Shop Chronicles, Brick Mansions to see what I mean. I've never been affecting this much by an actor's death before, and I never will be again. I really don't know how bigger star, he would of been today. This documentary, unlike no other, chronicles the life of our late star, painting a true picture of a man who gave with his heart, and lived life like no other. For me, there were some borderline teary eyed moments, especially, when viewing family footage of him as a nipper, doing his first screen test, even showing him as a four, five year old, with bushy hair, doing a doggy food ad. The documentary really captures, the inner true self of this special guy, and this almost masterpiece-ish docu is very affecting, the late Paul, wouldn't be disappointed at this tribute. If I had to meet one star in my life, without the exception of Willem Dafoe, this is someone I'd meet. A true humanitarian, and I'm humbly proud to say legend, who left us, way too soon. especially only months after his 40'th. Now that sucks. For Paul Walker fans, especially.

This is a truly wonderful documentary about Paul's life, really sad to see not many watched it. If I had only one complaint, I would have liked to see them talk about just how impacted the world was by his loss. It wasn't like your everyday celeb pasing, Paul was someone special. In the Philippines, his death was heart breaking because of all the work he did there after what happened.

I never met Pail of course but loved him in all his movies, he seemed so genuine and kind. Aside from Robin Williams, Paul's death was one that made me cry. The world lost an amazing person way to early. And even more sad is it probably could have been avoided if not for his friend having to take the car around the block.

As a big fan of Paul Walker my review may be a bit biased but I think that this documentary is a touching tribute to one of hollywoods best actors of the past decade. As you may know Paul Walker was most notably known as Brian O'Connor from the fast and furious franchise but this documentary also acknowledges his other roles he played whether that be as a young child actor or in his later films also. We get a great insight into walkers childhood through many home videos and interviews with his mother, father, uncle, siblings and friends including probably his closest friend in the acting world Tyrese. The documentary focuses on Walker trying to balance between a peaceful life surfing and spending time with his daughter and the demanding Hollywood lifestyle. The only criticism I have of this is that they didn't get an interview with his wife, daughter or any other of his co stars this could have been due to them not wanting to speak on the matter as I can imagine it is still very sensitive even to this day.

All in all a very heartfelt tribute to a great actor, family man and good friend. RIP Paul Walker.

This documentary on the late actor Paul Walker really gave me some very good insights into the type of man he was. He was forever struggling with the phoniness and constraints of Hollywood, but realized it was a necessary evil to allow him the freedom to do what he really loved when he wasn't working.

What stood out for me in this doc was Walker's generosity and wanting to help not only his own family but help anywhere he could be of service, like his traveling to devastated Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. Additionally, he was hands-on active in the conservation of animals like the Great White shark.

All in all, only knowing Walker from his screen performances, I am glad I got to discover what a terrific human being he was in so many ways. With his tragic accident in 2013, the world did indeed suffer a major loss.

I found it interesting that they never brought up once his girlfriend at the time when he died? He was with her for 7 years? I heard she was a big part of his life why not even one interview?
