Metacritic reviews

“Twelve Final Days” is a tender, mellow film that delves inside the head of a deeply enigmatic figure as he asks the relatable and terrifying question: “What’s next?”

More solid Prime Video Sports Doc than Subject-Transcending Asif Kapadia Investigation, Twelve Final Days is nonetheless an entertaining, occasionally illuminating and at times surprisingly moving look at the final bow of a genuine tennis legend.

Like its subject, the film is not particularly revolutionary or groundbreaking in its approach. But again, like its subject, it is a work of unmistakable quality and class.

It would be difficult to convince anybody without a pre-existing interest that this constitutes compelling storytelling on any level.

Federer: Twelve Final Days is a slightly flavorless digestif after the main course that was the Swiss' inimitable career.

Federer describes himself as an emotional guy, but with the international press and his management team nearly always on the sidelines, there’s little privacy to get personal.

The tears of Roger Federer, along with the tears of Rafael Nadal and even the tears of Novak Djokovic, are what finally give some point to what is otherwise a pretty bland, officially sanctioned corporate promo for the Federer brand.
