Maybe the target age for The Announcement cuts off at those who were born after Magic's announcement in Nov 1991 that he tested positive for HIV but for those audience. fans or curious or want to check in for an update, The Announcement is a great relaying of what was and is his journey from then to even now that really is the human story. The Announcement is SO well edited it moves at a pace as it no doubt was created in LA by the best. But it is not a shiny prime-time style blowing sugar at the audience nor salacious bummer. It is a human story, of an iconic super athlete. An exceptional documentary. The basketball fan who can remember when the Titans were on the court will be paying attention. They all are in this. His wife Cookie is an open book as are his family. HIV/AIDS virus has an adversary in Magic, as well as all who educate, research for cures and take it seriously yet it's his humble, common man genuineness that this film gets you to know. Go Magic!
