Movie Review: Kobe Doin Work

It came out a couple of weeks ago, but I just saw it. Yes, I've seen Kobe Doin Work. And, yes, I have read a ton of bad reviews of it. Let's see if I can add anything different to it.
First off, what is this movie trying to be? It's marketed as a "Game in the Life". But near the end of the game Kobe expands to last years finals loss to the Celtics. The end also is a conversation between the filmed and the filmmaker (Spike) about Kobe's record setting night at MSG. If you're going to expand what is discussed and explored outside of the very season, why not explore what happened with Shaq, or LeBron, or even the rape charges?
The movie supposedly gets you "inside the head of a NBA player". There it shines. Kobe is constantly talking about spacing and screens. Not to mention his constant "advice" to his teammates. (Personally, I couldn't stand to play with him for more than a few games)
The actual presentation of the game (April 18th against the Spurs), is actually very good. The sounds of the arena are abundant, and the music fits perfectly. When a big play is about to happen, you can tell by the music. Along with some slo-mo replays, there are also some black and white still photos laced in.
In the end though, I wasn't swayed one way or the other. I didn't learn anything groundbreakingly new (NBA players make fun of Matt Bonner!). I wasn't completely bored either. So if you're bored this off season and need some basketball, watch it. If you're a Kobe hater, just wait for LeBron's new flick coming out later.

Basketball: 4/5
