Lewis Raymond Taylor was a mess, a drug addicted alcoholic, who cruised through life, a friendly, happy go lucky guy that ended up behind bars, then giving people Life coaching.
Seriously, if you or anyone else needs life tips and life coaching from this moron, then I genuinely feel sorry for you.
The story about him being attacked was very sad, and possibly the reason for him found off the rails, but the combination of drink and drugs, I'm sorry the guy is just loathsome.
Hard to understand why this ended up in Netflix, if you're a key to get through this, then good on you.
Why on Earth does he think he's in any sort of position to give people advice, I genuinely detest guys like this.
He now presents as a clean cut, well spoken, mild mannered guy, I don't buy it.
Loathsome.
2/10.

This "documentary" seems more like a 1hr 26min advert for his life coaching business. It is not a well balanced insightful recounting but rather he comes across as an untrustworthy person who just wants you to like him.
The "documentary" is repeatative and not engaging. I wouldn't recommend watching it as not educational or entertaining. When someone tells you who they are - trust them. Or in this case definitely don't.
I gave it three stars only because the production is good quality. I am still very surprised to find something like this on netflix - who shouldn't have put it in the documentary category.

This wasn't entirely disinteresting. Like most other reviewers on here I'm heartened to realise they see the con. I too was waiting for a twist. Most of us grow up unloved. We don't all want to hurt others. Is he doing what he's doing to genuinely help people? Or because its a good business model?
Thank god for the one voice of sense here. The lady near the end. Apart from her it's all "we love lewis" "he's christ...the redeemer" Tacky matching tattoos which turns yourself into branded cattle and I would have like to have learnt how some people have turned their lives around but instead the documentary focused on how you too could be a life coach. Pay to be a life coach. Who gets the money? You're being mugged off by some geezer. It's a PYRAMID SCHEME. Look that term up before you think of investing.

"The Psychopath Coach" is a documentary that masterfully delves into the complexities of the human psyche, illuminating the shadowy aspects of leadership and the ambiguous intersection of ambition and ethical limits. With compelling storytelling and enlightening interviews, it adeptly explores the fascinating realm of coaching, prompting viewers to ponder the fine line between brilliance and ruthlessness. What distinguishes "The Psychopath Coach" is its capacity to enthral and engage its audience, stimulating contemplation on ethical considerations. It seamlessly intertwines real-life narratives and expert commentary, offering a thorough yet riveting depiction of the intricate dynamics prevalent in high-stress coaching environments.

I don't have much to say that hasn't already been said - this is just a long advert for his coaching business. It starts by throwing in some back story (repeating the same thing over and over) then gets into the 'sell' which is basically a load of client testimonials repeating how much their lives have been changed by this company. I skipped 10 min chunks for the last 30 mins to see if it changed but nope just more and more self promotion. This whole documentary is to increase subscriptions and how Netflix signed off on this is absolutely mental. Save yourself the time and don't watch this you will never get the time back.

This documentary shows all sides of Lewis Raymond Taylor, the story takes you on a journey from trauma to triumph. It's no pretty picture what a hard upbringing can do for someone and the documentary wasn't afraid to show it, it was very real and adding in the clips of Lewis as a young man trying to deal with his trauma was entertaining and sometimes shocking. It made the watch even more intense as it seemed impossible for anyone to turn around what he's been through. I think it portrays a great way of viewing the coaching industry through the eyes of Lewis and his "haters", showing both sides to the story. All in all it's a very inspirational story for the youth of today who feel lost and uninspired that they can also do something with their lives!
Lewis's story is undeniably powerful, yet the documentary's narrative structure left me with mixed feelings. While it effectively navigates contrasting perceptions, there are moments where the storytelling feels disjointed. The inclusion of raw interviews adds authenticity, but the film could benefit from a more seamless integration of expert insights. Despite these considerations, the documentary successfully sparks contemplation on societal issues and personal growth. It's a good documentary to watch and reflect on your life, it was very well produced, congratulations to all the developers and Netflix for providing us with a wide range of entertainment options.

Absolute drivel, abandoned ship 25 minutes before the end and that's still an hour my life im not getting back.
Why do so many former wreck heads reach their thirties and decide to become life coachs? This would have been an interesting question for the filmmaker to have asked instead of churning out a 90 minute advert for the subjects latest get rich scheme. I assume this was funded quite probably in its entirety by the people that it's clearly delivering an advert for.
Don't waste your time with this nonsense. At best click bait. Wish I'd have done literally anything else than watch this nonsense.

Should have realised from the fact they included modern day inyerviews with the protagonist where this was going....
The rest of these reviews are legitimate insomuch that after 40 mins this becomes a cheesy, cynical, unashamed cashgrab for this chancers business.
It is breathlessley irresponsible, and misleading that Netflix has even allowed this onto the platform. This Lewis guy is basically just an unlikable barrow boy on the make. They draft in so called experts early in the 'mockumentary' looking into psycopathy and the tired old nature/nurture nonsense then Lewis hits you with his David Brent with a quiff and teeth schtick. They even refer back to the cheezy American life coaching industry... claiming this isnt what that is - which is them basically putting 2 fingers up to you - because they no that is exactly what it is.
Disgusting shameful cash grab. It did motivate me... to switch it of.

What is the message of this documentary? Become a thug, justify your actions by blaming others, and then exploit an easy-internet based global business market, to sail off into the sunset as a millionaire? Is an old and boring cliche message, you normally find on an Andrew Tate podcast. Not Netflix, but they were obviously duped too lol.
The only person to speak any sense was the lady at the end - which Netflix included for 'balance'. I wasn't impressed at all by the 'Celebrity Psychologist' - that's his official title apparently. Gives you an idea of the intellect involved here.
This was a poor performance by Netflix, and reflective of the times we live in.

Watching this documentary is not just a waste of your time, but it also feels like a diminution of your life's quality. The entire production appears to be an elongated advertisement, promoting the central figure and his questionable business practices. What is particularly disappointing is the initial impression it gives - the first few moments seem to promise an in-depth analysis of his life, potentially highlighting some of the more controversial or negative aspects. However, this promise quickly dissolves, revealing the true nature of the film: a glorified, feature-length advertisement.
It's concerning that such content finds a place on Netflix, a platform that was once celebrated for its high standards and quality selection. The inclusion of this documentary suggests a possible deviation from those standards, perhaps influenced by financial incentives from the subject of the documentary. This shift in content quality and editorial choice is alarming and raises questions about the integrity of the platform's selection process. The fact that Netflix, a leader in the streaming industry, would include such a biased and arguably low-quality documentary in its catalog is a disappointing development, suggesting a concerning trend towards prioritizing profit over content quality.
This documentary not only fails to provide a balanced or critical view of its subject but also represents a broader issue in the streaming and entertainment industry, where commercial interests can overshadow the need for informative, unbiased, and high-quality content.

As a documentary lover, this one shows the true meaning of how everybody is capable of change if they truly want too & even more in this case. A lot of young people can & will relate to this documentary. Young people who mess up will never feel like they can change paths. This is a must watch for everybody as it is never too late. Hats off to Lewis for showing how vulnerability and righting his wrongs and owning it!!
I will be putting a lot of people onto this documentary as more people need to see what is possible. Look forward to following the journey Lewis embarks on and how many more people he can help.

The documentary had me captivated from beginning to end. Lewis's transformative journey in "The Psychopath Life Coach" is undeniably captivating, yet the pacing of the documentary left me occasionally feeling overwhelmed. The intricate web of contrasting perceptions is masterfully woven, but at times, the narrative seems to lose focus. The documentary successfully sparks introspection on societal truths and the human mind's complexities, yet some segments could benefit from tighter editing. Despite these considerations, the film remains an engaging exploration of personal growth, earning it a respectable 7/10.

I've never written a review on IMDB before, but after wasting 45 minutes of this utter drivel, I felt compelled to sign up to warn others not to do the same. This is a low budget, low level infomercial about an extremely unlikable violent thug with no redeeming features. I can only presume he has self funded this documentary and has then paid to get it onto Netflix. I bailed halfway though, and that was after spending at least twenty minutes leading up to that wondering if the story was actually going to go anywhere. Nope. Just long-winded waffle about the teenage years of an awful human being behaving in awful ways. Do not watch this under any circumstances whatsoever. Its perhaps the worst thing I ever seen with my eyes.

First time reviewing something on IMDb which says a lot. I'm gutted that I actually sat through the entire thing. 90 minutes of a narcissistic, smug business owner selling his own company and banging on about how great is basically.
Any nuance around the guys story is provided 99% of the time by his own colleagues and customers. As such you can't help but feel that this is no more independent investigative journalism than the advert for McDonald's that came on immediately after I switched the thing off.
If you want to be entertained, avoid this at all costs.
If you want to learn something of value, avoid at all costs.
If you want to see an ex-con smuggly parade his new extravagant jet setting lifestyle while moaning about daddy issues for 90 minutes, get stuck in.

This was the straw that broke the camel's back. This was the tripe that encouraged me to cancel my Netflix subscription after over a decade.
The content on Netflix has been deteriorating at an alarming rate. However, it has generally been watchable rubbish. This abomination somehow slipped through the quality control department, which I can only now assume is non-existent.
This is basically a lengthy advert for some shameful life-coaching scam sold to the misguided Facebook generation who think life coaches training other life coaches is feasible, and not a blatant pyramid scheme.
Avoid this diabolical mess at all costs.
Rumour is a company has been hired to vote this 6-10/10 to inflate the rating. It went from 1.3 to 3.6 in two days.
