I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A great documentary about Sir Christopher's life and work, highlighting his incredible talents: from hosting Saturday Night Live to the German dubbing of the Last Unicorn and his recent participation in the Rhapsody project. It is a wonderful homage with previously never shown archive clips and absorbing interviews of Sir Christopher's friends Viggo Mortensen, Tim Burton or Roger Moore. Also unique is the showing of Christina, Lee's charming daughter. Having seen amateurish "Making of a Legend", a previous Lee biography, my expectations were low, but French filmmaker Oliver Schwehm paid Lee due respect. Even if you are not a fan of Lee, this biography is highly enjoyable for the insight into his life and work.The channel Arte TV had programmed the film on 3rd of January 2010 in the context of a « Christopher Lee Special » weekend, but was apparently forced by members of Lee's entourage not to air it. The reasons for their opposition to the documentary are not clear and until now there is no statement from the channel on their homepage.First newspaper reviews about the film have been generally favorable. I hope this cancellation is only short-term and that Arte TV finds a way to air this program quickly. Sir Christopher has deserved it.
