Der Mensch Bill Gates

I am 26 year old and if someone ask me what's your biggest fear, I would say that " Extraordinary people like Bill gates, warren Buffett and many others are getting old and once they gone, only few people are going to be left to change this politically driven selfish world.

Most of the content and editing were great, but the director's interview segments were excruciating. You can actually see Gates trying to find a kind way to respond to the insipid, off point, childish questions and I kept wondering if that was the purpose because they certainly didn't add much else. Also, did Diet Coke pay for all that advertising? And the final conclusion/question/narration was not in any way useful or interesting or insightful. I hope this guy keeps making documentaries but partners with someone capable of conducting an interview and providing worthwhile commentary and analysis.

This documentary gives a peak into Bill Gates's brain. Chaotic, relentless, cramped with information on various topics at once, always thinking of solving big big problems.

In the face of setbacks he simply tells himself "I've got to work harder". The director questions if getting too deep is Bill Gates's flaw. But I think its this relentless attitude that makes him the most likely to succeed in any of the problems that he is trying to solve (e.g. Sanitation, Disease Eradication, Climate Change).

The documentary gives a clear insight into the challenges in solving some of the world's most significant and long-lasting problems.

Loved each episode and of course improved my knowledge about Bill and his thinking than prior. Thanks Netflix for picking up such one nice topic. A series could have added more details on how Bill tackled crisis situations and war with competitors (e.g. Apple, Netscape etc)

The production is great without a doubt. Regarding Bill, he shows aspects that I didn't know about him, but the most interesting part are the projects in which he has been involved, which is inspiring. I think there's a lot to learn about his life.
