Untold: Malice at the Palace (2021)
Season 1, Episode 1
8/10
Necessary for Basketball Fans
17 August 2021
Documentary based film on the events leading up to, the actual event itself, and the compact results of the 'Malice in the Palace' brawl between the Detroit Pistons, Indiana Pacers, and Fans.

This is what we needed as NBA fans, to hear the sides of the players involved, especially after we were blessed with 'The Last Dance'. The interviews from Jermaine O'Neal, Stephen Jackson, The basketball player formerly known as Ron Artest, Reggie Miller and fans involved all proved to give us vital insights on the thoughts of those involved in this brawl. Unfortunately this project does not capitalize on so much more. Such as the lasting effects of the players and organizations involved. This could easily turn into a multi part project, those are my own biases as a basketball fan yet the hour of so of this film is straight to the point and pretty enjoyable.

Basketball fans this is a must watch, especially for those who grew up and knew about this event. Even for those who did not grow up when this went down, please watch this educate yourself on how NBA players are more than just athletes, they are human beings too.
