Heartfelt, if authorized version of Cannon Films' Golan & Globus
Unbiased Review
If you saw 'Electric Boogaloo' then you already know the two men in question declined to participate in that documentary because they were doing their own. 'The Go-Go Boys' is exactly that. You lose a lot of the people being interviewed, but you do gain a more personal touch hearing from Menahem Golan & Yoram Globus constantly.
Clips get shown and naturally there's some overlap between the two docs. Duplication in footage & the same topics discussed. 'Go-Go' stands out by speaking with actors who worked for Cannon Films that 'Boogaloo' didn't. Jean Claude Van Damme, Jon Voight, Billy Drago and you get to hear much more from Michael Dudikoff. Plus personal stories from the men themselves and their families.
It also provides new insight into the collapse. In an eye opening bit, an interviewer tries to get Menahem to talk about Superman and their failures. He wants nothing to do with it stating they get "erased" and "never existed". A clip of him on an Israeli talkshow while the company is in the midst of going down cements his denial.
'Boogaloo' gave the broad stokes why Cannon failed, but 'Go-Go' spells it out. A fine doc that chooses to focus more on the men than the movies they made. It goes on to explore what the two men did post Cannon as well. I prefer 'Boogaloo' slightly more, but you can't go wrong with either if the topic interests you.
