Latin Kings: A Street Gang Story

This documentary about King Tone, the head of the Latin Kings in NYC during the mid-1990s leaves a lot to be desired. Unlike most subjects of documentaries, King Tone just isn't very personable or interesting. The movie follows his leadership and his criminal charges. I was very excited about watching this, as I have been interested in the Latin Kings for years, but greatly disappointed by the film. I wish that there had been more on the history of the Latin Kings and less about King Tone. It is a sad story, which left me feeling sorry for his family, but not him. I wouldn't recommend this documentary to anyone.
