David Beckham's documentary is a testament to his incredible journey in the world of football and beyond. From his early days at Manchester United to his international career with England and his successful stint at various clubs worldwide, the film captures the essence of his sporting prowess. What truly shines, though, is Beckham's humility throughout the documentary.
One cannot help but be moved by his genuine appreciation for the opportunities he's been given and the people who have supported him along the way. Despite his fame and fortune, Beckham remains down-to-earth, grounded in his roots, and grateful for the life he's lived.
Overall, David Beckham's documentary is not just a celebration of his incredible achievements in football but also a testament to his character. His humility, gratitude, and commitment to making the world a better place make him not only a sporting icon but also a role model for aspiring athletes and individuals alike that one must never give up during moments of adversity. England was cruel to him and the media tried to destroy him and his family and they came out on top.
Absolutely beautiful documentary!

Absolutely beautiful documentary!
The directing in this is so intriguing. Especially the players all watching the game film, us as an audience looking directly into their face while watching. And then the projecting of the film onto their faces. So so cool. This is for everyone it's not just for football teams or Beckham fans. But definitely can real anyone in because of how it tells the story of his background. The amount of people they had come and do interviews was really spectacular. I will definitely be watching more than once. It's easy to binge through or you can spread it out. I would recommend this to anyone. Very worthwhile.
I was just there for Posh and ended up cheering with the goals and wins and devastated when England didn't take the World Cup. Lol!
I suppose being clueless about football worked out for me. I had no idea about the outcomes of the big games or what David's next career move would be. Everything felt fresh and thrilling. Honestly, his life is like something straight out of a movie.
What I vibed with the most was that pure 90s and 00s nostalgia. Man, those were some wild times, peak capitalism and pop culture madness.
Absolutely recommended!

From the point of view of somebody who seldom follows sports news and only knows David Beckham as a great soccer (I'm an American) player and Posh Spice's better half, this is quite informative, shocking at times.
His rise to stardom is awe-inspiring and much more pleasant than the abusive treatment some famous talented children (think Mozart and Beethoven) have experienced from elders who try to force them to be the best they could be. His parents appear to be loving and nurturing. His self-control (no drinking), humility and diligence (even when benched) that are most probably the fruits of an exemplary upbringing, are truly admirable.
The bullying he got from Manchester United fans for that one mistake is shocking. From being treated like a legend, he was bashed like no other. It's a wonder he did not crumble. That might be attributed to his awesome support system - his loving wife, parents and teammates, among others. But mostly, his nerves of steel and grit make him a giant among men.

I have absolutely zero interest in football, but I was a kid when Spice Girls rose to fame so obviously I kind of knew who David Beckham was as well since I was such a huge SG fan. When this dropped on Netflix I thought "why not". I found this documentary to be interesting and emotional, and I was not bored for one second. I like that they got so many people talking and sharing stories and perspectives, and the amount of archive footage shown was amazing. Documentary explains in a straightforward and linear way the journey David had, and the immense resilience that he had to keep playing and keep pushing. The friendships, the love, the trials of hardship, the hate, the wins... The documentary is just one big package of it all, and even though he had such great success it's nice to see he still seems very humble and happy.
