Bruno R How can you totally invent goals and actions from the most important Pele’s matches? 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 Max W Really good movie about the best player of all time. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/31/23 Full Review Luke W "Pele: birth of a legend" is an inspiring and captivating biographical sports drama film, showcasing the life story of the Brazilian football legend- Edson Arantes do Nascimento known as Pele (portrayed by Kevin de Paula). The movie directed by Jeff and Michael Zimbalist expertly portrays the rise to fame of young Pele from humble beginnings to becoming known as one of the greatest football players of all time. The film hits all the right notes, from the storyline, the outstanding cinematography, and the music score, which captures the spirit of Brazil's rich culture. The acting performances from the actors portraying young Pele (Leonardo Lima Carvalho) and his father (Seu Jorge) are also quite remarkable, adding to the film's authenticity. Vincent D'onofrio's portrayal Vincente Feola, the head coach of Brazil's National team is remarkable and a true mark of this actors experience as a character actor. As we journey with Pele, we see life in the streets of Brazil and the struggles that he faced, especially with his father's resistance to his love for football. The film depicts his rise from a small town to playing for his country in the 1958 FIFA World Cup in Sweden at the age of only 17 years old, while also touching on racial discrimination in Brazil. Overall, if you're a sports fan, a follower of football, a fan of biopics or searching for an inspirational story, "Pele: birth of a legend" is a must-watch. It offers a reminder that success is achievable with determination, resilience, and talent. It is a fascinating celebration of the legendary footballer whose tireless achievements continue to put Brazil on the map.
