No it didn't last dance is a Jordan wank fest that is totally biased and pro jordan
Last Dance is enjoyable but let's not pretend it wasn't an MJ puff piece as it was all bought off on by him.
For someone whose formative sports-watching years coincided with those of Jordan's reign, Last Dance has been nothing but wonderful for me. I was at an age where all I did was watch the basketball and love it, but I was too young to know what was going on behind the scenes. For that alone, this documentary has been golden.No it didn't last dance is a Jordan wank fest that is totally biased and pro jordan
