I am not from the U.S.A, I have never watched a basketball game ever, I don't know the rules and I only know Michael Jordan from a picture when I was young.

I had nothing to do and randomly clicked this to watch, one of the best Netflix decisions ever.

What an amazing beautifull made documentary. Without having any connection with the sport whatsoever I felt I lived every moment.

Best documentary I have ever seen next to Planet Earth and thats saying something.

As a basketball lover that grew up watching Michael as an idol this series called "The last dance" is just an amazing dream. I was only a teenager during the 90's with barely access to NBA basketball or footage. So, all the episodes are just amazing. Pretty intense, interesting and an amazing way to understand how Michael Jordan become the best NBA basketball Player of all time and at the same time understand how was his last dance with the Chicago Bulls.

This documentary is about the best player of all-time in Michael Jordan and how he led the best team of all-team in the Chicago Bulls as they make a run for their sixth championship in the last year the team competed together. You don't even have to be a Jordan fan, or even a basketball fan for that matter, to enjoy this documentary. It's terrific, the only thing that I didn't like that much was how they time jumped so much. This documentary has unseen footage and candid interviews as it goes in depths into the team and the pressure they were under to win. It will make you emotionally invested whether you're a fan or not. If you want a compelling documentary on one of the best sports dynasties ever then give this a try!

As a basketball player who grew up watching Michael Jordan, this documentary was absolutely amazing! For those of you that were too young, this was a great introduction to the best player of all-time! This documentary shows both the ups and downs of one of the best dynasties in sports history and an inside look at one of the best athletes to ever walk this planet! The ONLY people who seem to not like this documentary and rate it low are 12-year old LeBron fans (not all, just the Jordan haters) who can't stand the FACT that 90% of the world thinks Jordan is easily the best ever. It's not even an argument when 9 out of 10 people believe one thing and in this case it's that Jordan is the GOAT. But that 1 out of 10 keep trying...God bless em!

Awesome and came at perfect timing. With no sports around due to current situation this show has provided much needed boost for all the sports fans around the world. 10/10

As a Pacers fan, I HATED Jordan and the Bulls because they were always the team to beat. Watching this as an adult gave me a different perspective and I have to respect Michael Jordan for his leadership and talent. I wish there were 10 more episodes to watch!

I've had never liked Michael Jordan (the hazards of being a Pistons fan I guess, you grab onto anything the slightest bit negative about someone you're predisposed to not like, that confirmation bias), just like as a Tigers, Wings and Lions fan I dislike all the icons over the years with the Sox and Cubs, 'Hawks, or Bears either. The rivalries between Detroit and Chicago with all our rival teams for so many years being in the same conferences and divisions, you are almost expected to loathe each others' teams and fans.

But even 25 years past it's still a real thing, whether justified or not, and I will always consider Jordan a suck for forcing Isiah Thomas off the Dream Team. Other people may be taking flak e.g. Magic Johnson now after so long to get some of it off Jordan, but at the time the sole thing stopping Thomas from (rightfully, it was a real unwarranted slap in the face to him) being on the team was Jordan, and everyone knows it.

It came close to a real abuse of power, in this case star power to interject himself into a decision he should have had zero influence in. That makes it doubly ironic that he didn't help his biggest asset, Scottie Pippen, out by using the undeniable star-power franchise-making influence he had over the entire Bulls organization from bottom to top to force the GM and/or owner to offer Pippen a wage reopener on his contract. Other athletes did this all the time to help out a teammate who got a particularly horrible contract, ones with much less power than Jordan I might add. When Pippen was traded Shaq immediately gave up 2 million dollars a year of his own salary to give directly to Pippen, and they were brand new teammates with no existing relationship of any kind.

That's what a classy player does, or one with the slightest lack of pervasive self regard. At the time I'd hoped it shamed Jordan a bit for Shaq to have done what he did without a second's thought, again, what a class act in comparison, but Jordan has always struck me as an Ayn Rand-type, with that "I at least partially lucked into this lifeboat so I hope the rest of you suckers can swim" attitude, and him never lifting a finger when he could have with absolutely no detriment to himself to make sure one way or another than the league-wide disgrace over the pittance Pippen was paid was rectified. There was no downside to Jordan to help out someone who's supposed to be not just your most needed teammate to help you do the magic, like Messier to Gretzky, but also a friend.

But maybe that really ruthless way of looking at every opportunity or situation on or off the court as toward one single goal, winning, blinded Jordan to this really easy opportunity to do something truly righteous and with the kind of fortune Jordan amassed through sponsorships he could well afford to shave a couple of mil off his Bulls salary to help out Pippen who had arguably earned that money right off Jordan for how they had eyes in the back of their heads knowing every second where the other one was on the court, it was uncanny.

And I haven't even mentioned the series yet I know, but I wanted to give the full context about how many different things I don't like about Michael Jordan before saying how much I loved this documentary series. I'm a big fan of documentaries, but especially longer series versus a feature-length, where the director and writer(s) can really dig into a subject. I watch the classic older docs like "Victory At Sea" or "The World At War" that Laurence Olivier narrated so well, and I try to watch every decent documentary series from all over the world as much as I can (other than cheesy ones with inaccuracies that don't dig very deep into the subject matter, like those churned out by "history-themed" cable channels).

I came into this wanting it to be a total hatefest on my part while watching, about this documentary was so riveting in that way that it makes you forget yourself as well as any preconceived notions one has about Jordan; maybe that is why this has really proved popular beyond all expectation in this weird time we are in. It is the ultimate escapism for a sports fan particularly, and even more particularly when sports of any type are in short supply. And I found something so very unexpected happening inside me, deeply in a way, as a person, seeing Jordan's humanity so fully exposed as it was bound to be with so many thousands of hours of film to go through, it changed the way I feel about Jordan completely just through the reaction of my own basic compassion I develop for anyone I get to know, and I feel like through watching this I really got to know Michael Jordan, the person, not just Michael Jordan, the player.

Beyond reliving something in a way that makes you feel you're right back to all those times if you'd been a basketball fan that long, and feel like you're back there still even if you hadn't been born yet maybe. The series really uses framing of the different time periods very subtly, but while still shifting the mood seamlessly in a second flat... I don't think I've ever quite seen that before. I just turn 50 and this series brought me back with such potent nostalgia to my 20s that I felt like I did watching some of those games for the first time ever, a virtual time machine, and though I still don't like some of his actions and choices back then, "The Last Dance" made me like Michael Jordan, the man. Maybe even love him. And considering my starting point, that is something.

We saw Michael Jordan on the court for several years, but this documentary brings you in as if you don't know how it all ends. This documentary is very well put together. It begins the first two episodes with flashbacks between the early start Jordan's career and college days to the career high of champion seasons. The story then moves on to Pippen's story with a similar order (early days then career high), but also a challenging relationship with team ownership. As the series moves on we will get to Rodman and more of Phil Jackson's history with Chicago. The Last Dance is definitely a must see.

As a 18 year old boy that has never seen this team playing live, after watching one episode of this series I felt very excited about the history of Bulls and especially for the Joradn's "Kingdom". You should give a try on this series, undoubtedly!

Two episodes in and I am like, give me the whole show, today now i dont give a f... how much does it cost.. Cant wait for the next episodes.... MJ the first sport idol.

I really liked this documentary. As a kid growing up during the MJ years, it was a beautiful slice of nostalgia. However, I take some issue in the editing choices. I was perfectly aware of everything going on but still found the back and forth story telling a little much. It began to feel like the drama was being lost in the back and forth for me. Still great.

The greatest sports documentary ever made. I have watched this all the way through at least 8 times now and I never get tired of it.

The game of basketball nowadays has evolved. Jordan is the reason why basketball became popular GLOBALLY. Also the kids nowadays need to see why MJ is the G.O.A.T. and not LeBron James.

I'm huge fan of MJ, having watched him since his NC days. I watched every Bulls game during their championship seasons. I also scored floor seats to his last game @ the United Center when he came back w/the Wizards. (In case you're curious how he was received, arriving with the visiting team - to a standing ovation that lasted so long they had to blink the lights.) This miniseries is PERFECT, it's so well done, it's such a precious gift during quarantine. Watch it now!!

An amazing and detailed documentary about jordan, one of the best and greatest athletes ever, not just a basketball player.

Considering a total of just over 8 hours, his entire career has been shown through numerous unpublished recordings, interviews and photographs. Although the title the last dance represents his last season in a Chicago bulls jersey, the documentary touched on literally everything in his career. I think that a lot of effort has been invested in building a project like this. Just collecting and restoring old shots seems like an eternity. I especially liked that this is not a typical documentary with a linear plot because every bit of the plot goes back in time when it is related to the appropriate story or person. The documentary is further enriched with many people from Jordan's private and sports life, so we can see some events from multiple perspectives, there is his family, his teammates, but also rivals, opponents and people who are totally unknown to the public, but are always were with him. Although i knew most of the things from his sports life and how games ended, when he dropped out, when he won the title, how and against whom, i still felt a certain tension and excitement because of the way the documentary showed everything and some minor things which i didn't know, but all together it's great connected so we have depth of the overall story and career. From my perspective Jordan has always been big and untouchable. The bulls were the best team and Jordan their best player. The fact that Toni Kukoc, as a Croat from Split, was an important wheel of that machine, certainly helped. This is where i see the only complaint with the whole project. Many players got a bigger stage light in the documentary (probably because they're Americans so they're more interesting) than they objectively deserved with their games from Kukoc who was the third Bulls player in importance and statistically. But I don't want to talk about it now even though i could really do a lot about Kukoc, but that's for some other, sporting discussion.

Definitely a recommendation for all fans of sports, basketball, and i believe for those who are not so interested in sports. I've watched these ten episodes in three days, and i'd have watched it before had i had more time because it's really great done from a film perspective.

This documentary gives us what we've all wanted. A peak at the lives of The Bulls beyond what we know. And a perfect picture at the dominance and greatness of one, Michael Jordan!! This will help paint a more vivid picture of the greatness of this man and these players. Can't wait for more!! Can't get enough!!

From episode 1 to episode 10, it has been an inspiration knowing about the story, the struggle, the win and the lose within basketball!

The way direction of episodes and clipings are done, it simply gives chillzz to me.

I loved the 90's bulls and like so many was obsessed with their success. Here is a great insight into why they didn't get to 7, 8 or even 9 championship rings. You have the arguably the greatest dynasty in sports history and like so many times before, when something doesn't need fixing, in comes personalities and egos to mess everything up. The last dance is as compelling as it is heart breaking, as the question of "what could've been?" looms. It's a comprehensive breakdown of the events that lead to the break up of the greatest sporting teams in history. Wonderfully captured with deep insight provided from the people that were actually there. While simultaneously flipping back in time to give us a deeper understanding of how the key players got to the position they found themselves in. This has been 20+ years in the making and so far very much worth the wait.

ESPN never fails to deliver history from the past into the present so well. This amazing footage of jordan and the bulls in 1998 will have one feeling nostalgic, and for those who haven't seen Michael Jordan play get ready to step into a whole different dimension.I myself relive it Just like it was yesterday. This documentary is not only pivotal for the sports world but for non basketball fans as well. This will be set along as one of the great sports stories of all time, if it already hasn't.

I'll start by saying that the show was mostly good. I remember waking up at 4 am to watch the live playoff games, so it was nice and nostalgic. I wasn't a Bulls fan and wanted Utah to win it, but the show made me appreciate the Bulls more. Having said that, it looks and feels like the show was directed by Jordan himself. Even when they try to show other sides of him, he comes out almost prefectly clean on the other side. I especially didn't like his arrogance and mistreatment of teammates and opponents (like the way me laughed at what Gary Payton said). I understand that in order to make a documentary about Jordan, you need his approval, but I feel it crossed a line. In addition, I think there were too many explanations about why he wanted to win (because, evidently, only winning a championship isn't enough). It was always: the coach said that, so I had to show him, or this player dared to try and win, so he deserved a lesson. So it's a good show, but it's a one man show, and way too kitschy for me.

It started well but as it went by it became a kind of a tribute to Michael Jordan. Honestly, and regardless of the magnificent athlete he was, I doubt that his image comes out well from this show. Before I remembered him as the greatest. After, I am not sure. To be great, you cannot be a bully, a too much self esteemed character, rude for your partners. No matter the good you are, you have to be a good character too. For me, Michael Jordan does seem to be one.

There's nothing to say. It's Jordan, the one and the only that will ever exist, with the best team of all time. I can't ask for more.
