interesting documentary, but also somewhat strange. It was really fun at first, did a great job of explaining his life and career, but Good Lord, the last thirty minutes, well, it’s depressing, overly negative, and does a TERRIBLE job as an ending. Hour 1-5 stars! last 30 minutes-1 star
Unbalanced is the only word that comes to mind for this Doc. The Director kept interviewing the cast of the Karate kid throughout the ENTIRE doc as if that was the only film Morita ever did. Granted, the Film made him a star but it was not the epitome of his work as an actor. In the same way Morita’s struggle with addiction did not define him as a human being, but yet, the Director spent the last forty minutes of the film talking about Pat’s struggles in the most depressing manner possible instead of memorializing him as a great actor and human being as he deserved. A very one dimensional documentary.
