Focuses far more on the personal lives of the 2 men who created Cannon films so it's nowhere near as much fun as Electric Boogaloo which spent alot of time deservedly ragging on the films themselves in very entertaining ways. Despite that, this is more insightful about human nature: specifically that extremely ambitious people who accomplish what seems impossible do so precisely because they always prioritize achieving their dream over anything (comfort, reason) or anyone (family, partners) else

Fun documentary about the Cannon Films, which was made as a response to Electric Boogaloo - the other Cannon documentary. This is the Golan-Globus approved one, and therefore paints a much rosier picture of their history and skips some issues altogether. So, It might not be that truthful, but IMO it works better as a film than EB which is a bit jumpy and confusing at times. If you are interested in the Cannon history, I'd advise you to check out both docs and draw your own conclusions.
