I’ve always loved KSI but I’m always gonna love JJ. This documentary effectively portrays the complexity of life, particularly highlighting the adversity faced by JJ. His story is truly inspiring and leaves a lasting impact. I'll definitely be reflecting on it for a while. This documentary also underscores the importance of gratitude for supportive parents (which I have been blessed with and am so thankful for). Witnessing JJ's journey emphasizes the stark reality of his situation, evoking a sense of sadness. His resilience and determination resonate deeply with me, and his drive is truly inspiring. JJ, you're truly a remarkable person.

Had the biggest smile on my face for the majority of this. Subscribed since 2011 and genuinely proud of everything he has acomplished.

The doc itself isn´t anything crazy but I still loved it.

bro…

as someone who has grown up watching KSI it’s so interesting to see what’s going on behind the scenes and what his personal life is like. I cried so much during this and I only wish the best for jj.

Bit slow at parts but his relationship with his family is the most intriguing part of this for me. I can relate a lot.

Didn’t expect to like this this much but am pleasantly surprised. Very close to an 8/10.

Seeing a more true side to JJ is both sad and very humbling. I've grown up with KSI being one of the og's of YouTube and his is someone that I still enjoy watching.

The documentry was an amazing look into his insane life. JJs youtube videos doesn't throw the same energy as what is portrayed in this doco .. instead JJ seems quiet lonley and unloved by his family which pushes him more to become successful in what ever he does

I really enjoyed this film .. one of the best docos I've watched in a while.
