The documentary is 90 minutes. For the first 60 minutes, the viewer is taken through Bob's life and career with an alleged affair between him and Annette Kowalski. For the final 30 minutes, it very much feels like we-can't-say-too-much-or-the-Kowalskis-will-sue-us.
This leaves the entire doco feeling pointless and unnecessary. Several times it's pointed out that people declined to be interviewed for fear of legal repercussions; had those people agreed to speak on camera, this would have been a very different experience. As it stands, I was left wondering what the point of it was. The "betrayal and greed" promised in the title is vague at best, with more info included on Bob's Wikipedia page than the documentary.
If you're a fan, watch it. If you've never heard of him but are intrigued by Netflix's "we can't show you this trailer" advertising, give it a miss.
