As a Rousey fan I was looking forward to seeing this as she has a truly amazing story behind her in terms of her upbringing, her Mum's achievements, her Dad's sickness and what she went on to become.
However for a lot of the documentary, I was wondering (in a very frustrated way) if it was a actually a Gary Stretch autobiography and they got the links mixed up in Netflix somehow.
I had never even heard of Gary Stretch. If the cheap and amateur editing and sound quality wasn't bad enough - we have to endure the ENDLESS cutaways (seriously - over and over and over again!!) to Stretch pouting and trying to look all intelligent for the camera. It is torturing for even the first 10 minutes let alone having to endure it the whole way through. For some unfathomable reason he includes a whole bunch of fight scenes of himself and interviewees repeating how great a fighter this guy is/was !?? WTF? - who cares about him - this is Ronda's story.

The content is interesting and it's cool to hear stories from the horses mouth. But this came out in 2019 and looks/sounds like a home movie from 2012. The editing was disappointing and the interviewer was overly involved rather than narrating and guiding us through the story.
Ronda Rousey has an inspiring story that is very interesting. The camera work, editing and directing was worse than a high school production. Please have a professional film crew remake this into the 10/10 documentary it should be.
Great life story.
Not so great delivery, at all.
Should've been done so much better.

I swear the producer gets more screen time than Rhonda. Incredibly bizarre. Also, it really looks like it was filmed in the 90s.
Decent story, AWFUL producer and production. Makes it hard to watch.
