This English documentary is very misleading. Check out the footage at 02.40 - it clearly shows an Indian or Pakistani street. We then get introduced to Ronaldo as being brought up in some kind of Brazilian (03.12 and again at 07.38) or Filipino favela (03.40) (which the narrator points out is the poorer area of Madeira - NONSENSE, that kind of housing does not exist there and it never has. The footage clearly shows people of colour (in those favelas) so this could have been filmed in Africa - the greater majority of the Madeira population is white. Yes his upbringing was poor - but NOT that kind of poor. It's disgusting enough that footage about Brasil, Phillipines, Africa and India/Pakistan is used to introduce us to his upbringing. At 07.45 we see he moved to Lisbon where we see part of a stadium on which it can clearly be read "West Stand" - HELLO... In Lisbon their stadium's areas are written in Portuguese not English. The re-enactments by Brazilian actors are also disappointing. Apart from the actual football and live interviews and comments this documentary is hog wash.

How can you miss that Ronaldo is Portuguese in a Documentary....Not Spanish and Sporting Clube de Portugal e as the name says a club from Portugal and not Spain...Keep your facts in check.This asides think the documentary is boring...I had never written on here before but i had to say something.A documentary has to be as accurate as possible and not just a hole lot of trivial things...In deed this is a very poor documentary!!!!The only thing that is worth a wile is that they tried to show what a good person Ronaldo really is.

I thought this was a very well made documentary. The film goes over his childhood and how he came to where he is today. It also goes into some comparisons between him and Beckham, paparazzi stories, his generous donations and a somewhat secretive child he has. I learned a lot about Ronaldo. I had no idea he was such a caring person. We usually just see him as this flashy guy. But it seems he really takes care of people. He is very kind and generous with his money. And it seems, he's not just tossing his money around either, but takes the time to stop and listen to whoever he is helping. I definitely see him differently than I did before I watched this film.

Before seeing this documentary all I knew about Ronaldo is that he is attractive, dates models and likes to take his shirt off. However after watching this documentary I learned that there is a lot more to him than the flashy side we often see. First off Ronaldo grew up dirt poor in a small island off the coast of Portugal. He was so poor that he often missed meals. The only thing that got him through was a soccer ball, which he brought with him everywhere he went. Also I learned that he has a huge heart. He tries to give back to his hometown and is known to pay for surgeries of children suffering from cancer. All and all I learned that there is more Ronaldo than meets the eye.
