One of the best lines in the opening was when Michael said, "At some point, it is what it is."
It was definitely sad to see the real Michael J. Fox in an unedited frame, to see how someone who could not sit still lose control over his motor function and body movement.
And after that initial shock, we got to learn about Parkinson's in another depth and to see how it affects the patient.
But the scene that brought a tear to my eye was seeing a re-edited sequence of Back To The Future with Hans Zimmer's score in the background. That was a great treat.
However, this movie wasn't about the making of, so we quickly jump back into Fox's struggles; while, as I suspect, following a script taken from Fox's book which he wrote. And we do see some scenes of that, too.
I'm not sure how good of a watch this would be if you are not a fan of Fox, but I enjoyed a lot of it. The ending came a little suddenly but, well, because there is no end yet.
