"Rob Reiner's HBO Doc Tribute to Albert Brooks: A Delightful and Wanting More Review"

Rob Reiner's new documentary, "Albert Brooks: Defending My Life," explores the career of the revered writer-director through an extended conversation between Reiner and Brooks, as well as interviews with A-listers who admire him. While the documentary captures the rapport between the two friends and offers glimpses into Brooks' early career, it falls short in providing depth and additional insights. Viewers may be left wanting more, especially in terms of exploring Brooks' filmography and hearing from other influential figures in the industry. Nevertheless, the documentary serves as a charming tribute to one of comedy's greats.
