I Am Bolt

In the 100m and 200m, Usain Bolt has ruthlessly dominated the field in athletics in the last 8 years and is the only person ever to win a triple-triple of golds in the Olympics. Between his absolute reign and his fun-loving, animated demeanor, you can't be faulted for thinking it is just raw talent and some training.

'I am Bolt' presents a window into his life: the ups and downs, the euphoria and the lack of hope and motivation that are the natural cycles in a career in sport. It's a peek behind the perception of eternal greatness.

Certainly a recommended watch.

Top-notch documentary. Usain, his parents and his entire entourage present extremely well. Hey, so does the entire Jamaican fan-base. There are a few lines in this that succinctly explain why Usain was maybe the most popular athlete in the world during the latter half of his career. I won't repeat them. You'll see. The only issue I could raise is it should have included more info about the field he raced against in the Olympic finals. I know it is about Bolt, but that is important. Also, there were a couple of people in Bolt's everyday life who were never introduced, but somehow Serena was there over and over again.

I guess many people were bored because it doesn't try to create controversy, which is how Usain lived his athletic career.

Love athletics, I watch every competition with or without big stars taking part. I remember great documentaries like 16 Days of Glory about LA84 but this documentary is boring, keep losing interest and Bolt's opinions are not the very clever or interesting you can hear (it's true he wanted to be a footballer because he speaks like one: dull). A sucesion of his races would have been more interesting than this boring and bad filmed documentary.

I put off watching this and when I did start I thought I'd probably not watch it through to the end. However I did as I couldn't remember Bolts results at the 2016 Olympics which kept me more interested than maybe the documentary justified.

There were quite a lot of conversations between Bolt and his trainer/friends etc which I couldn't quite understand, but I don't think I missed much. Bolt seems like a nice chap but there were way too many scenes of him just chatting to his camera phone - this wasn't great.

This could have been half an hour shorter and more time spent showing races rather than the associated before/after banter. So certainly watchable, but could have been so much better.

Technicaly nor well filmed.No punchlines,kind a messy.Not bad,but not great.
