Beckham

David is the complete midfield genius. He's one of the greatest and is easily perhaps one of the best footballer players I've ever witnessed personally.

He's from the generation just above me so I grew up watching everything which was expected from him and that was an awful lot. Too much.

When the fateful sending-off happened against Argentina I saw that on TV like so many millions if not billions of other World Cup viewers from across the globe.

It was a very sad moment but it was also unfortunate. What is extremely sad and unforgiving is how the public treated David after it happened. The gutter UK press absolutely hounded him and I'm very sad that he didn't counter-sue them for what was absolutely bullying and intimidation.

I'm an Arsenal fan and it was David who took away some big potential wins for us and he was the crown jewel of the best United side I've ever seen.

He was truly a wonderful player. A complete midfielder and the best free-kick taker in decades; perhaps of all-time!

He married his teenage crush; Victoria from the Spice Girls. They were absolutely huge as a couple in late 1990's and 2000's. The documentary also focuses on her and how they fell in love and the crazy lifestyles they both experienced.

The Beckhams are now long retired and living the dream in their beautiful home surrounded by their beloved family. The documentary is heavily centricated around David's homelife as well exposing is his gifted personality traits such as his OCD nature and his astounding attention-to-detail.

He's got another level of intelligence with the way he can visualise a pass or project play before others can see even which route he takes in games.

The meticulous way he presents himself is a dream for the fashion industry and it's no wonder that he became a succesful model as much as a footballer. Could you imagine having him on your books? Instant-selling catalogue; no matter how bad!

He's also a thoroughly kind and humble and heart-warming dude with classic English gentleman habits. I'm proud that he's played for England and I'm proud to call myself a fan; even though he played for the wrong team!

This is the ultimate David Beckham documentary and all young sporting athletes should watch it to learn about what the sport does to you but how rewarding it is as well. Thank you, David!

I'm sorry that the FA didn't protect you enough and you got dropped by United and Real Madrid. You didn't deserve either!

I'm a Man Utd fan so was immediately drawn into this documentary. We see a young David Beckham playing on the school football pitch to training on the grounds of Manchester United to being one of the most recognised brand/face in the world.

He talks about his relationship with his wife and Sir Alex Ferguson, the allegation of that extramarital affair and the bullying and abuse he suffered after the 1998 red card against Argentina.

We see David Beckham getting into his bee-keeping... check out his initials embroidered on his bee-keeping suit! We get a glance into DB's amazing colour coordinated wardrobe (I'm so jealous!!) There are loads of interviews with Victoria, family, Sir Alex Ferguson and various team mates and friend's.

Altogether, there are four episodes, each about an hour long. There were moments in the documentary that were quite uncomfortable to watch such as the aftermath from the sending off in the 1998 World Cup against Argentina and a heartfelt moment when DB was overcome with emotion towards the end of his last ever football match for Paris Saint-Germain.

What a brilliant and an amazing career this man has had. The whole documentary was well made and fun to watch even if you're not into football but just appreciate what David Beckham has achieved in his life so far. I was gripped throughout.

I lived the growing of the figure of David Beckham as a teen. I was only 4 years younger than him. And honestly, on the early days I thought it was only a marketing product. But men, I was wrong.

First, the documentary is pretty well done. It shows the mostly lights possible but also the dark. The darkness David Beckham lived as an iconic ultra mediatic person. What a nightmare.

Second, I like the way Beckham is shown here. Human. Not only the golden balls boy. He mostly accepted all the criticism with a pair of golden balls. That was raw.

Last, I recommend the documentary if you want to know who was the most iconic and mediatic person in football before CR7 - Messi era. Sir David Beckham.

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.
