Absolute Evel: The Evel Knievel Story Trailers

Matthew McConaughey hosts a profile of legendary daredevil Evel Knievel that features extensive commentary from Knievel and footage of famous leaps, among them his failed 1974 attempt to cross the Snake River Canyon in Idaho using a sky cycle. Also: a look at his time in prison; and his relationship with his son, Robbie (who comments), also a daredevil.

Reviews
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
