So, 'My Life Over the Top' gives you this gritty, raw glimpse into the life of Virgil, a guy who really embodies the hustle. The documentary has this almost unvarnished feel, like you’re sitting there with him as he recounts his rise from selling pots and pans to the darker, more dangerous side of life—drugs and high-class prostitution. The pacing feels deliberate, letting you soak in the weight of his choices, and the atmosphere? It's dense, almost oppressive at times, but it really drives home the themes of ambition and survival. The interviews and archival footage blend nicely, giving it that authentic street documentary vibe. You can’t help but feel the tension in his story, which makes it distinctive in the sea of crime docs.
