Interesting documentary, but I wanted more about the outrageous scheduling and logistics of all the races. Also, it kind rushes to the end and even skips races they are showing so it is a very lackluster ending.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Irish Times

I don't know anything about horse racing... I did, nonetheless, enjoy every minute of Being AP, mostly because of the dry, dour wit of the film's subject and the good-natured eye-rolls provided by his wife, Chanelle.

Rated: 4/5

Empire Magazine

Wonke has the access to make a great documentary, but can't quite find the perfect story focus to put this among the best sporting films.

Rated: 3/5

Guardian

As a portrait of what motivates a sportsman at the top of his game, and how difficult it is to let go, this is insightful stuff.

Rated: 3/5

RTÉ (Ireland)

AP McCoy is regarded as the greatest jump jockey who's ever sat in a saddle, and this fascinating documentary follows his last year on the track.
