The Sidemen Story

The sidemen story is really the story of the sidemen we go on a journey all away back to 2013 to 2024 and it's great we get a glimpse of the lives of the sidemen and it shows their fans including me at event and meet and greets or truly it an amazing documentary it is only available in the uk I wish it was international for everyone to see but this documentary really explains the sidemen to people who don't watch the videos and the new fans it also show the behind the scenes of the sidemen which I think is a great thing to see in a documentary it's the thing your looking for in a documentary I really think it's great.

The Sidemen's Netflix documentary is a captivating journey through the history of this iconic YouTube group. Tastefully directed, it weaves seamlessly between past and present, offering a masterpiece that provides insight into the boys' remarkable story. With seven unique perspectives, the documentary serves as a perfect introduction for new audiences, delving into the group's evolution, friendships, and the challenges they triumphed over. While the focus remains on the collective narrative, it doesn't shy away from the individual struggles, highlighting the journey of each member. However, it's essential to note that some, like Vikram, might find themselves slightly overshadowed on the sidelines. Nevertheless, the documentary brilliantly captures the essence of the Sidemen, creating a must-watch for both fans and those unfamiliar with their remarkable journey.

Interesting documentary about the sidemen and getting to have more intimate looks into different members lives especially the more emotional ones is interesting and thought provoking. I watched sidemen growing up and even before they formed I was watching KSI so it was nice to see and hear how they formed and seeing nostalgic clips of them all. I wouldn't say it's the best documentary, they definitely didn't speak on some things but they gave more in depth looks into each member and even the hardships as a group too, it was also entertaining and funny at times too of course. Overall a decent documentary and helps us view them as more than influencers and more human.

Production value was great and it gives a good insight into the sidemen. I think a rating of 8 is very fair as nothing is ever a 10. Being a fan from the beginning myself I do believe Netflix missed a lot of the lore out which has brought my rating down a little, but overall I do believe its probably a fair representation of the sidemen and how they came to fame. For someone who doesn't know the sidemen fully this would be a superb watch and gets a small insight into what they do and how they became so famous. Like I said I do believe Netflix could have added at least another 40 mins to an hour on top of what was produced by just adding small bits of lore.

"The Sidemen Story" offers a glimpse into the lives of the renowned YouTube group, The Sidemen. While it captures the group's camaraderie and rise to fame, it falls short in delivering a balanced portrayal of all members, particularly Vikkstar123. Known for his significant contributions to the gaming community and business ventures, Vikk is reduced to a simplistic character motivated mainly by financial gain. This overlooks his passion for gaming and his role in shaping online communities. Despite its moments of emotion and humor, the documentary's narrow focus on financial motivations, especially regarding Vikk, detracts from a fully realized narrative of The Sidemen's collective and individual journeys.
