Ronaldo

You may call him arrogant, a person with a huge ego but in reality he has a humble heart. Ronaldo covers almost all of the phases of his life, his journey, his achievements, his personal life and his deep passion for football. It gives us a glimpse of how Cristiano Ronaldo is off the pitch and both on the pitch rather than what media tries to show us. He is loved throughout the world and hated as well. Cristiano Ronaldo himself tells us about the all the hardships he faced and how many sacrifices he has made to be able to become what he is now. His family, especially his mother played a huge role in his success and the movie clearly shows how she enjoys his son getting the recognition that he deserves. Another star in the movie is Cristiano Jr. He is been the most important part of Ronaldo's life. The movie shows the great bond they both have and how his presence has turned Cristiano Ronaldo into a more mature man. Messi who has been an integral part of his football career since his move to Real Madrid with constant comparisons of who's better, can be seen during many parts of the film and it depicts their professional relationship and how the rivalry has influenced Cristiano in his professional career.

Ronaldo gives us a great insight in both the personal and professional life of Cristiano Ronaldo. Combined with great soundtrack and various inside footage, the movie shows us who Cristiano Ronaldo really is, not what he is shown in the media. If you have followed Cristiano Ronaldo,whether you hate him or love him, this movie will certainly change your mind about him. A kid from the small island of Madeira to become the best player in the world, the message the movie tries to give is that "Nothing is impossible!"

For this half of his life I gave it a 5. Would love to see the other half of his life...

I would have gave it a 10, if the other missing half would have been included in this documentary.

But anyway, I guess it would have been close to impossible, to talk about the other half which may not be so appealing, and disturb some of the people who think or want to think that, what this documentary showed is pretty much all the truth about his life and the other persons involved in it.

IMHO he is one of the best football players of his generation!

Here, we got a son who knew that he got talent and knew what he really wanted to do, what he really wanted to be, what he should do to reach that goal. Here, we got a young man who never lost his focus to be a good man, a good athlete, a good son, a good brother, a good professional, a good father/parent. Here, we knew that there only needed only one good son if he could become successful, making lot of money, then all his family members would have the opportunity to benefit from this one member of the family.

Here, we have to remind all the parents who are poor or not rich enough not to rely on your sons or daughters to change your family's financial status, if they don't have the talents or the urge to become the HOPE of your family. They've got to have 1) The Real Talent; 2) The Ambition and The Urge to use and take the advantage of their gifted talents to reach the top. Only success can bring in money to improve the family's poverty.

Here, we have to remind all the parents who are rich or too rich to not force your sons become the heirs of your fortune and wealth, or to use your money to invest on your sons' or daughters' future if they 1) Do not have the talents; 2) They don't have the ambition or urge to become a great success. If your sons or daughters got no music talent, don't waste your money to force them to learn how to play the piano, violin or whatever the instruments would be. If they don't have the dancing talent, don't waste your money to force them to waste their childhood or youth-hood in ballet. Don't force them to do anything that you think is good for them. No talent, no ambition, no urge, then forget it.

*This is very important: Only the real talented, gifted kids know what they want to be or to do when they are still very young. Non-talented ones are just aimless and clueless no matter how old they are. Talented ones are like pioneers, trail blazers and adventurers with iron will and courage, they set out their own journeys by their own choose in their early age, and never let go, while the non-talented ones are like tourists, they need their parents as their tour guides to point out the direction and arrange the supporting transportation means for them to move forward.

Ronaldo is a good son, a very talented son and he got the ambition and the urge when he was very young. He is a fine sword and he continues to fine tuning himself to be even greater, sharper and more lethal in the field, then used his hard earned money to do the talk. There's nothing he really needs you to agree with him or not, because your opinions mean nothing to him. If you have some negative opinions against him, it only proves that you are not successful enough yet, or already being a certified lifetime loser. So just keep your mouth shut and watch to learn something from this person's partial life story.

That's the motivation you get from this movie. Mendes's demanding voice would definitely hype you.

Feel that this is less than a half of Ronaldo's story. As a fan I would love to see a full documentary of CR7.

But for those who love Ronaldo, it's highly recommended to watch this.

The passion, ambition, and commitment he has given, shown, and proven are needed to be admire.

This will show how a mother can be so proud about the succes of her child achived at an international level.

This shows being the greatest is not that easy, maintaing it ia even harder without so much of sacrifices, and unconditional love and support from the family and friends.

A solid and emotional documentary about the person Cristiano Ronaldo. Unfortunately, you learn next to nothing about his training methods, but much more about his feelings and his life with hid son. The latter sometimes seems a little artificial, but all in all an interesting person.
