Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald This comprehensive and kinetic biography of Formula One great Michael Schumacher is an impressive piece of work, but the man himself remains a contradiction. Sep 22, 2021 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian The film is a collaboration with the Schumachers and massively benefits from their archive of photos and home movies. The downside is that it has the blandness of authorised biography. Rated: 3/5 Sep 17, 2021 Full Review Allison Shoemaker Fox 10 Phoenix A mostly hagiographic look at an undeniably dazzling career. Sep 16, 2021 Full Review William Tucker But Why Tho? A Geek Community The documentary doesn’t shy away from Schumacher’s accident, which is treated sensitively and with respect. The inclusion and approval of his family adds a whole different level to the film, filling it with warmth and love. Rated: 9/10 Jan 16, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Schumacher is a revealing, yet incomplete documentary of a Formula 1 legend. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 9, 2022 Full Review John McDonald Australian Financial Review Schumacher's erratic behaviour testifies to the extreme pressure under which drivers operate, but in his case the most intense pressures were self-generated.

Sams K We all miss Michael! This tells a lot of interesting things about Michael's career and private life. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/24/24 Full Review Noah g prolly my favourite documentary of all time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/24 Full Review Myles K Felt as good as the Drive to Survive series but about Schumacher. Really enjoyed it and it's a shame that such a tragic event happened to such a great person. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/24 Full Review John B Good overall & interesting documentary about the man behind the race car and how he achieved success from an early age. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/18/23 Full Review Rosana B Documentário sobre um dos maiores pilotos do mundo, sou apaixonada por fórmula 1 desde 92, felizmente tiver sorte de assistir a grandes pilotos como Senna, Prost, Schumacher, mas te vejo em felicidade de torcer para Alan ao invés para Ayrton, uma infantilidade doentia que hoje eu compreendo e reprovo... Gostoso ver a determinação dessa excelente profissional, desde a infância, quando tirava água de pedra, utilizando-se de carros mais simples por falta de verba… Emocionante #Chorei... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/03/22 Full Review Audience Member This was a chronological record of his life and greatest achievements and enjoyable to watch. But it was woefully short on interesting details, it came across as a fully sanitised version for his family to remember the good times by. I watched this to get an understanding of what happened to him in the accident and beyond, yet the film completely glossed over this. I learned more from a google search than the film on his life, disappointing. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
