"...The story is not all that it could be. I had hoped for a lot more, as Brando was indeed an icon in the industry. While it centered upon his loneliness and his inability to find happiness, despite having the world worship and adore him, most of what we see is that he had no true feeling for his children, at least that they could see and just like his parents, did the best that he could do.

What he was able to express on the screen was something that he evidently could not express in his life."
