What I like about this documentary- it's real ( as imagined from the head of Pogba and his team). They have been honest to share what they exactly think and thankfully shown some lovely peek behind the footballers family life.

What I hate about the documentary- You just don't like how narrow a footballer and his team can be in thinking of everything but the game. During 5 episodes, Pogba talks as much about Manchester United as he talks about acting/ fashion or retirement. He doesn't have 1 analytical opinion about his stint at United other than he doesn't feel supported. Late Raiola was the guy who spoke 2 lines on how he wasn't same guy with United as he was with France. Neither people tried to show any picture as to why it happened? Just very simple moaning. As a footballer you would love to share your ideas of the game, what enthuses you- idea of tactics etc etc. Pogba doesn't. He shows how simplistic view of the game he has and that's something he has displayed on the pitch as well. Pogba is just an extension of Ozil- he wants to be paid huge amounts of money but still wants to be able to give excuses if he doesn't perform. You see a couple of lines on how he was looking to learn from Ronaldo- no lines on whether he actually did. There are a lot of such broken stuff that's just shows where priority of team lie even in this documentary.

To showcase Pogba as a brand, just that when you distance the brand of footballer with the game, how far can the brand go independently.

I guess we will find out.

The movie takes time to build but is one of the best in recent times. Both Micheal B Jordan and Jamie Foxx have put in an honest effort to play the role of actual ppl. The message that comes across is sad especially on current justice system in the states. Seriously, I hope movies like these at the very least put an impression on the current society and atleast help them become a better character jb future. As it says in the end, a country has great character or not, we can know by how they treat the poor in the country and not the rich.

Amazed at its extremely low rating when we have so many Netflix offerings full of tasteless comedy and bs love making scenes, get 7.5+ . For me, it I'd a steady comedy, not out of mind witty but simple and solid. I have rated it 8 because it's storyline is very good, clean and concise. Actors are very well chosen and it binds you very easily to the story after 5-10 minutes. A definite watch during lockdown.
