Val Ratings & Reviews
- Mister ArnMay 14, 2025This is a very personal look at Val Kilmer's life written by Val Kilmer and read by his son. He uses footage he has accumulated over his lifetime and is created as the cinematographer. It's an interesting look at a very complex person.
- Charles LondonApril 21, 2025This film provides an intimate look into a man blessed with artistic talents, a man cursed with unrestrained demons, a man full of familial love, and a man beset with painful challenges. Good bio-doc with excellent narration by Val's actor son, Jack.
- cultfilmlikerMarch 24, 2025Not ALL footage needs to be repurposed. Sifted through decades of tapes and this was the best…..ssss…..
