The film
An unprecedented, behind-the-scenes glimpse at the man who built the inimitable empire of comedy, shaping television and culture for generations.

The real review
This documentary about Lorne Michaels and his empire splits people right down the middle. It’s packed with archival gems and big names like Tina Fey and Conan O'Brien, which makes for a decently funny and nostalgic watch, but it doesn’t dig deep enough for a lot of viewers. The story itself is called thin and unoriginal, failing to deliver a truly revealing look at the famously private producer. While it’s a fun surface-level tribute, many felt it was a missed opportunity to tell the whole, compelling story.
