    I'm not even a big football fan and I loved it.

    Biggest learnings from this movie for me were:

    1. How you play is way more important than the result. if you focus on how you play and you do that well, results will come.

    2. If in 25 years, people are still talking about what you did/created then you can say you were great. To complement point 1, people will not talk about the titles you won, they will talk about how you played.

    Its an entertaining and inspiring film for anyone, not just football and Barcelona fans.

    Beautiful. Must watch for all football fans. Very inspiring.

    I've never seen a movie more beautiful than this. It depicts vividly why Barcelona is more than a club. Hats off to the producers for making such a perfect tribute to Barca golden days. There was not even a single boring minute. Totally worth watching. As a Barca fan, I have been blessed to have seen it. Visca el barca. Mes que un club!

    "Més que un club"

    Without any Doubt one of the best sport documentaries of the best Football team i've ever seen, I am very Lucky to be a Big fan of this club.

    As a Barça fan and a lover of beautiful football, this makes me incredibly happy!

    Great way to honor the best team that ever played football. Pep's Barça played without any doubt the best football in the history of the game. This look into how it started, the great influence of Cruyff not only as a player but also as a coach and then a mentor and how another great name can give new heights to this philosophy, this way of life. Xavi really is the Mark III people are expecting. His understanding of the game is right there on top, along with Pep and Johan. He might not be there until after Messi's era ends (hopefully he will but timings might not work out) but when he comes La Masia will be able to produce great generations of players, inspired by Pep's team, by Messi, Iniesta, Xavi and many others, the same way this generation was inspired by Johan and his dream team!

    Visca el Barça! Més que un club, una filosofia!

    Barcelona's beautiful game.

    A brief depiction of Guardiola's Barcelona, a team that dominated the world, thanks to Spain's golden generation, Cruyff's philosophy and Messi. The main narrative focuses on these elements expanding on tactics, training and the central players of this new team as well as portraying the club's core values of unity and cohesion. There isn't a narrator. Instead, it's a collection of interviews, pieced and stringed together to achieve the result. Game footage is limited.

    As a whole very interesting and intriguing. Nonetheless it's a specialized recount of an aspect of football. As such I guess it's catered more towards fans of the club or of the game with knowledge and passion for the argument.
