‘The Amazing Johnathan Documentary’ is fascinating in the same way that a car crash scene is fascinating. You drive past and go “Holy shit!” but you never actually find out what happened. This film is a horrible legacy of a dying man, and a great disappointment for this fan who was hoping to watch one of her favourite childhood acts one last time. But if you’re looking for a film that subverts all expectations, including what you think the damn movie you’re about to see is about, this is for you.
