100%: Julian Edelman

First off - it's entertaining beginning to end and a must watch for any sports fan. Every talking head was relevant and funny, especially Bill Burr (more on this)

Secondly - I'm a year older than Edelman and grew up 2 miles from him who also played football. So personally, there was a lot of nostalgia for me

Thirdly and most importantly - this documentary introduced me to Bill Burr. I had no idea who Bill Burr was before watching this in 2019. Out of all the talking heads, Burr was the only person I didn't know but the dude just kept cracking me up so I felt compelled to see who this person was and why he was on this documentary......

I watched this with my son and will say that we both found the father son story inspiring. The love that the Edelman family shares was uplifting. Kudos to the parents for the values passed onto their children. Teaching kids how to survive in this world is the greatest gift you can give your kids. Even when they make mistakes loving them and showing them how to get past adversity.

The humour was a great bonus showing the deep connections between the "work friends", loved it!

Lastly, I'll just say that there are some haters leaving low rating reviews just ignore them. They missed the point.

I watched this thinking it might be a cool underdog story. Instead we get countless shirtless montages, D list celebrities like Michael Rappaport and Bill Burr telling you how great Edelman and the Patriots are and occasional shots of his daughter watching him work out. Nice quality daddy/daughter time.

As a bonus we get Marky Mark dropping countless F bombs but not as many as he and the studio head dropped after Mile 22 flopped worse than a European soccer player.

Why not just have Tony Robbins and Flavor Flav show up as his hype men while Edelman squeezes out 2 more shirtless reps?

I do enjoy how he makes himself a victim for taking steroids. Cue Sarah McLachlan music.

Utter garbage.

What a great story. It really picks up after act II and act III. A story about a middle class kid, his family who supports and believes in him and a drive to make the most out of his God given gifts. His father Frank is a driver and Julian listens and learns. A mother who I am sure is a driving force and a glue. His siblings who respect and support him. Not to mention the others who have helped him along the way.

A story about Hard Work and desire. No secret formula to success.

Nice motivational story about family and love.

Nothing is a given many would have been satisfied and given up after injury and tje adversity following but not Jules.

My only complaint was no Belichick and no Linemen. Though the Belichick impression was classic.

Firstly, I'm a Patriots fan and a huge Julian Edelman fan born and raised in New England.

Knowing the Edelman story was as incredible as it is, an undersized player making it in the league and eventually getting super bowl MVP, I thought I was in for a treat. Spoiler: it sucks, I was bored within 10 minutes.

I'm a huge fan of Smoothietyme and Burgertyme, and all the social media stuff, and I love documentaries, so this doc seemed like a slam dunk.

Unfortunately, as I began watching my mood turned from gleeful to extremely disappointed. How could the writers, producers and director blow such a potentially straightforward, uplifting, and inspiring story?

Julian should find someone else to tell his story, whomever made this really muffed it up.

Whoever gave this a good review, please tell me why, I struggled to even get through the thing it was so boring.

If I were to choose a high point, Frank Edelman seems like a hell of a guy, would have loved to learn more about him.

Hope Julian's next movie venture isn't such a bust. Thanks for reading.
