Amazing story. Sub-par Audio Post

I loved watching every minute of this documentary and reliving the magic of it all. I was very distracted by the poor quality of the sound mix. Too often I thought "what did he say?" and had to rewind. The segment with the song Everybody Wants to Rule the World was a mess. Music was not properly ducked and voices mixed in were just a bunch of mush.

Credits show 16 people on the Audio Mixing. Wow. Really?

Jimmy, call me next time. I could do it better myself with one assistant.

And incredible documentary about the 80's Mets. Show how they built a incredible team and dominated most of that decade. I loved and still love this team. Amazing job doing this documentary.

Three Parts Too Long
cavaseal-231-73491616 September 2021
This is exactly what I expected. It's presented and sold as this lovable group of crazy never-say-die scrappy malcontents that defied all odds to win it all.

And my feeling then and memory still today as I watch the highlights and old footage is that they were just a bunch of cokeheads and a-holes.

It has a feel of "How could you not love this team?" Clearly no one involved in the making of this revisionist lovefest was from outside NYC.

One man's "character" is another man's jerk.

And four parts?!? Get over yourselves.
