If you loved Bleacher Report’s excellent documentary on Michael Vick, then you will absolutely devour Michael Vick: A Football Life like turkey on Thanksgiving day. The NFL Films production simply takes Vick’s story to another level, with more player perspectives on his background, persona, and eventual comeback from rock bottom.
Obviously, there are similarities between the two mini-films. It is impossible to not cover the dogfighting plotline when discussing the highs and lows of Vick’s career. However, there is a definite emphasis on Vick’s return to the NFL with the Philadelphia Eagles and his personal moral obstacle of overcoming the stigma as a felon.
