I just finished watching the King of Kong sans any of the special features which might update the story a little. All I can say is that Billy Mitchell is a coward. That, and I don’t know why I find myself caring so much about Donkey Kong. But, I do and that is the power of this documentary that chronicles the goal of a laid off middle aged American man trying to make his life have some meaning… and his struggle to enter into the somewhat obscure and very “selective” world of classic video game records. Not going to say anything more, just that this is a great character study and a wonderful story of good vs. evil
Go Steve Weibe!
