    Best player in the world for a reason...

    The movie was nice..

    was nice to watch the story of a legend. How a little kid with Growth hormone deficiency became a legend in football.

    "He's a problem solver, a game changer, the greatest player to have played the game.

    Once they said they can only stop him with a pistol. Today you need a machine gun to stop Messi.

    the movie is about his whole life.how he started his football career, what troubles he faced and how he succeeded.

    Watch the movie and enjoy.

    What would we Europeans do without football?

    We would not be who we are. We really do not have anything else to contribute to the world except that game we play continuously, over and over again. USA has Hollywood, and we Europeans we have football. Americans should stop calling it soccer, because it is not. It simply is football.

    Messi is part of world heritage. Just as Pele or Maradonna are history so Messi will become history as well. Not only football history but world history as well. He is not just one of the biggest talents world had as far as football goes, he is also so simpa.

    Messi, I could write so many laudeamus about you, but so much has been said about you that I will just add: You will probably be the best player in history! They will always discuss who is is better, you or some other top player. But I think you will be remembered as the most simpa! Good luck and God speed!

    Wonderful ... Viva La Pulga

    Beautifully done with the conversational format and the background information.

    I would like to state that some other reviewer mentioned to not call association football "soccer". Well, the British coined the name soccer in short for "association football". This was done to differentiate between rugby football, or "rugger", and association football, or "soccer".

    Since the British invented the game, I don't think they'll take offense to your ignorance of the beautiful game's history.

    American football, rugby football and association football can all be called football. I'd defer to the inventors of the game when calling association football soccer, instead of calling Americans names based on deeper prejudices.

    Soccer is a beautiful game, by the way, and Messi is the greatest to every play.

    The Greatest

    As a big Messi fan (who actually support Sevilla), I was not so excited about this movie. I read his biography (both Caioli and Balague's books), I watch his every matches. So I thought to myself "there won't be anything new" but I watched the movie last night and I was touched by it.

    It as really amazing seeing his friends, former teammates and coaches and everyone else.

    It's always nice to watch or listen the story of a legend. How a little kid with ghd became a legend?

    We all know Messi the Footballer but seeing people who know about him since his childhood made me learn few things about Leo the Person. And it was amazing. We, fans, always want to learn more about people we admire, our idols. We want to know more about their lives. And Álex de la Iglesia (with Jorge Valdano) did a great job here.

    Messi, with his intelligence, his speed, his skills and his personality, is simply the greatest player ever.

    Well done!
