This was one hell of a documentary about the complete story of Christian Hosoi, from the time he was born, up to the time he was "born again". Yes, we do hear this same type of rags to riches, back to rags again story, but Hosoi was always a character, and was bound to leave us with the makings of a good biography. I don't know who the person is that wrote the other review, but he or she must be married to the filmmaker of Gator's documentary, because if he says that one is much better than Rising Son, then he is definitely biased. I really liked the documentary about Mark "Gator" Rogowski, but it is in no way, better than this one. If you can find it streaming somewhere, check out Rising Son: The Legend of Skateboarder Christian Hosoi, you will not be disappointed.
