“A mostly lazy and uninformative documentary that runs out the clock by giving small bits of information about Keaton between large swaths of clips from his movies.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis isnu0026#39;t a deep dive into Keatonu0026#39;s life by any means and just about the entirety of the information put forth of this movie can be found in the introductory section of Keatonu0026#39;s Wikipedia page.”
