The trailer alone teared me up a bit. I don't know if I'll watch the whole thing. I was a big fan of Walker, mostly due to his care and support of animals.

Watched it tonight. Pretty good. Seems like he was a really good dude in real life and didn't have any of that Hollywood baggage.
It is kinda odd though that for someone so loved, Tyrese is the only actor that showed up in the doc. Also kinda weird keeping his dig (at Hollywood? Producers? Vin?) in there. Something about certain people actively trying to keep him out of the F&F franchise. I mean it was a setup to show how Walker stood by Tyrese and fought for him, but still seemed out of place.

Ahh, first I've heard of that. If that's true he would probably been caught up in the #MeToo movement if he were still alive.
True.
The article wants the issue of his relationships with two 16 year old girls addressed. Not to excuse any behavior but I don't see what digging up old dirt on a dead guy will accomplish. The police don't go around and interrogate couples on their age. If there was no complaint from anyone at the time it easily would have been unnoticed by law enforcement. If the girl's parents had a problem they should have reported it. Movie star or not if my 16 year old is starting to spend an unusual amount of time with a 30 year old guy I would not be quiet about it.

Really solid documentary. I liked that it was told mostly from the family's perspective. It was bittersweet hearing from his Mom, Dad, brothers and sister. I guess Paul and Tyrese were really close since he was the only costar interviewed.
