---------------------------
This is an unauthorized portrait of the basketball legend in that there are no interviews with Michael Jordan himself. Instead, the opinions of coaches, friends, competitors, friends, and the like are sought to explain the development of the individual as a phenomena, athlete, film personality, and super salesman. Some consideration is given to the "Michael Incorporated" entity, how it started and how it continues. The rise of the phrase "I want to be like Mike!" is illustrated in this compilation of information and praise of the popular person (and symbol) that is Michael Jordan, including discussion of his character. ~ Leslie Birdwell, All Movie Guide
