Take the Ball Pass the Ball: The Making of the Greatest Team in the World

Incredible movie, most likely one of the best sport documentaries ever made! If you're a football fan it's the best. Must watch!

It is not an average documentary, it portrays the beauty of football in the best possible way. Truths are uncovered and tribute is payed to those who deserved. If you love football and wants to understand the philosophy behind the great era of Pep Guardiola, it is a must watch.

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.

I recently watched "Take the ball pass the ball" and I can say it is a movie that has balanced all its features to make a great film. All the characters fit their roles and make this movie worth watching. The majority of this awesome movie is dedicated to the coach's philosophy, and Barça's journey to be one of the best teams in football history wich made this film very interesting. It's just one of those perfect movies .The story, casting and direction all work to create onscreen magic that you need to see at least once in your life time!

It was wonderful to hear all those players and managers speak about creative football. The group included some of my favorite players, although I hoped to hear more about Cryuff and Netherlands football. I would have liked to see more Mourinho in Barcelona days, as well. Pep's closing "statements" were wonderful and conveyed a sense of bittersweetness that was sad to see, but expressed a strong pride in the achievements and lingering style.
