A bit disappointing

There's not much going for what's been the end of one of the greatest TV shows in history currently, and it's a shame to see it fizzle out to such a dull end. This documentary has no focus which doesn't help, it could've been split into segments and released in time as an exclusive special feature for the digital/physical versions of the show when they're released and detail the cast and crew where instead this is an add on that wasn't necessary at all in hindsight which is a shame to say the least. The documentary shifts through time as if it's a concept that doesn't exist which is to its downfall as in the end, the majority of the crew whom it follows are difficult to keep up with because they've been used sparingly and to no effect and the difficulties that the show had this time out aren't dug into and explored sadly. The exclusive time spent with Miguel Sapochnik, director of various episodes in season 8 and some of the most iconic episodes of the earlier seasons (Battle of the Bastards for example) is truly interesting as we see his abilities and the only true 'character' of the film in full effect as well as his 'beef' with the writers who constrained the production but again it's a storyline not touched upon, much like the roles of various others who are featured and sadly it's seems as though it was to merely benefit the filmmaker over any consumer with there being little substance to make it a worthy watch. Disappointing but not the worst
