Inside Bill's Brain: Decoding Bill Gates

The documentary is a love story, but even so one can't feel anything but awe. Even in a cynical world such as ours has become the transformation of Bill Gates, his growing up, through the hubris of youth into the maturity of the philantropist he has become is both heart warming and inspiring. The man who wanted to rule and change the world has become the man who wants to better and save it. That is true life superhero material and given his phenomenal characterstics which are his superpowers...i am impressed. But the inspiration goes beyond. We are not all Bill Gates, neither in character nor means but we can all use our specific characteristics and skills to fight for a better world. Bill Gates accomplishes a feat of no little means through his participation in this project. He inspires. Thank you Bill Gates for being here. The documentary is not perfect. The back and forth leaps through time and focus can be distracting but I can understand the artistic choice in that. All in all highly interesting...and have I mentioned inspiring?...

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.

Each one of us has to start out with developing his or her own definition of sucess and when we have these expectations of ourselves we are more likely to live up to them ultimately its not what you get or even what you give its what you become

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)

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.
