Giannis: The Marvelous Journey

I'm not a basketball fan, but what this man has accomplished & become is incredibly impressive & inspiring! To see this man grow into this great athlete & experience everything new for the first time. Not for himself but the future for his family! It's true amazing, along with his loyalty & dedication to be & do his best,... it's unreal & unheard of!

A must watch for everyone, after watching you'll be a fan! I actually appreciate this man for his great values & hard work to be his very best for his team, watching him play is magical! A true hero & roll model for everyone! I can say after watching this documentary I've become a bucks fan!

This is a must-watch for any person that believes in hard work, family values and perseverance. These lie at the core of the man Giannis we all know today. The documentary is a masterpiece. Outside sporting rivalries, it's hard not to love him and see how much of humanity he exudes.

The theme around family survival and how it impacts his disposition and his performance was a masterstroke. Maybe this will affect people's thought process per viewing the immigrant next door as more than just leeches and grifters, but folks who, aside from just trying to survive, nurse noble aspirations too.

The next documentary on him should be done after he retires. This crowns the earlier efforts to capture the story of the Greek Freak.

Giannis's life is one for the storybooks. If someone tried to tell you the story of a kid from the streets of Greece, who's family has nothing, would one day become one of the greatest players of basketball in the world, you would never believe them. When you find out it's not just about being successful at a game but caring deeply about your family and using that success to help them build a future, the story becomes even more incredible. I live in the Milwaukee area and was a season ticket holder in the years before Giannis. I've always loved our team but watching Giannis grow has been better than being just a fan of the game. You don't need to be a sports fan to understand this story. I hope you watch and I'm sure you'll agree it's about more than basketball. It's about desire, pride, and hard work. But most of all it's about family.

Very inspiring I'm not really a big fan of basketball as it's not a big sport this part of the world but watching from watching a few of this documentaries now I have a beta understand of the game. I shed a tear or 2 over the story just as an African living besides immigrants everyday nd losing my dad at an early age aswel I can relate better.

I recommend everybody especially young ppl to watch they will be inspired.

As for the treatment international countries give immigrants wish one day it can change there's a guy who says it straight Greece doesn't deserve Gianni and I feel the same pity they embrace the country as they were born there.

This was a refreshing documentary. Many documentaries made about celebrities is like an extended version of cribs "look what I have now". They come across materialistic and out of touch with reality. This documentary was different. From start to finish the most important aspect of Giannis' life was his family. His drive, success, and future ambitions were never about himself or his ego; they are fuelled by those he cares about most. He doesn't play down the hard work but shows where determination can get. Success is stepping stones and the support of a loving family is the most important thing along the way. New respect for this man. He's a true inspiration.
