Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review Алексей Ð The movie that I like and I can watch it many times is called Pele the birth of a legend. The biographical drama will tell about the backstage of sports, in particular about the life of the greatest player in the history of football — Pele. The audience will witness the difficult life of the Brazilian sports legend. How many obstacles did Tom manage to overcome on his way to achieve worldwide popularity? He is now demonstrating incredible professional achievements and, on top of that, does not forget about noble deeds, but before everything was different. From an early age, Pele longed for recognition, tirelessly pursued his dream, overcoming obstacles, thereby tempering his character. The picture covers the childhood of a football player, up to the victory at the first stage of the World Cup in Sweden, when Pele was seventeen years old. Fate has not always been kind to the athlete, but behind every successful personality there is a lot of work, iron will and firm self-confidence.I like this movie because I love football and my idol is Pele. This film teaches you to achieve what you sincerely want. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/04/24 Full Review Black B Una película entretenida a secas sobre una gran leyenda del futbol que creo le queda corta porque solo nos narran uno de sus tres grandes triunfos. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/04/23 Full Review Jerod S It's a rags to riches kind of sports story - but even more so, it's a cultural ownership and familial triumph kind of movie. Inspirational even if you don't know a thing about soccer. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/07/23 Full Review R 9 A straightforward, hearty sports biopic, is 'Pelé: Birth of a Legend'. I love football, if I'm not watching films I'm watching the beautiful game, so was looking forward to checking this 2016 flick out, as it portrays the early years of the late, great Pelé. The film isn't quite as amazing as the Brazilian baller himself, but I think it just about creates a pleasant enough 100 minutes or so. It does have the usual biopic clichés, but if we're being honest that's to be expected. Kevin de Paula and Leonardo Lima Carvalho do well as the titular character, though the standout from an acting standpoint is, in my opinion, Seu Jorge. I, to be honest, did not know of him until just over a month ago when I watched 2019's 'Marighella', I was thoroughly impressed with him in that and sames goes for this - a very capable actor. Elsewhere, Vincent D'Onofrio and Colm Meaney are involved too. My only main criticism of this is the fact that it's told in English. That obviously makes it that tad bit more watchable to English speakers like myself, so I wouldn't complain too hard, but it does slightly irritate me when the whole story is rooted, in this case, in Portuguese-speaking life and yet everyone speaks Anglais. Nothing major, granted. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
