Cristiano Ronaldo: The World at His Feet runs at just under an hour providind viewers with a look at Christiano Ronaldo's potted history with a tasteful, if not completely baffling, narration by Benedict Cumberbatch. The 57-minute journey zig-zags its way through certain key moments in Ronaldo's life, mixed with a more general commentary on football.

This man is an amazing athlete and fast with the futbol. I do not usually watch documentaries but this Cristiano is intriguing. I wanted to know more about his life and how he became a super star. I found out through this film. I love how Cristiano plays and the video highlights in the documentary showcase his skill, although some of the clips are shown more than once. I was surprised to see the poverty he came from in Portugal, but it adds to the amazing story. The film documents Cristiano's rags to riches story and show some of his toys. For instance, the cars he owns are amazing - wait til you see them! The music accompanies the film well, too. I liked the documentary very much.

This is such a bad patched, randomly assembled documentary film that I've ever viewed. there were even some from an old movie. The poorly patched works littered around with boring narrations from different people. There was nothing special to tell a good story but only with some patchworks cut here and there to assemble an indifferent story. I really doubt people would fall for Ronaldo by this lousy film. I just viewed the newer "Ronaldo (2015)" couple of days ago, comparing it with this horrible film, that one suddenly becomes so good, because the 2015 released film is very up close and personal. When you watched it, you were like standing or sitting next to Ronaldo in his car, his home and traveled with him everywhere he went. Yet this one, yuck, just with terrible boring stuff with terrible narration. I strongly suggest that you skip this and watch that film instead.

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.

Terribly boring.. Simply a collection of obvious facts from low level professionals. Yes we understand that one has to work hard to be a top sports-person. Plus some clips of top professionals from other interviews not filmed for this 'documentary'. Cringe-worthy reenactments (which did actually serve a purpose in making me laugh my head off at Alex Ferguson's double..). Fashion information from 'experts' and even an astrologist to tell us that all of Ronaldos actions are typical of his bloody star sign!! I've never written on here before but felt I had warn people after watching. Cannot fathom how they convinced Benedict Cumberbatch to narrate that.. Don't waste your time..

So I learned something today. Apparently Portuguese people speak a language that is a mix between Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. And I didn't know that Madeira resembled Rio de Janeiro's favelas or slums. Also the insight of the astrologist was very useful - a very important detail in an athlete's career. It's really a shame for someone to try to document a rather international public figure with such a weak attention to details when it comes to culture or language. Please, get your facts straight! Other than that it's quite nice that you showed his charitable and benevolent side, which should arise from the vanity comments that he is target off. And of course, such a great star should be known by all people, specially the football lovers.

I really enjoyed this documentary. I liked learning about Cristiano's childhood and his family. There's also lots of interesting tidbits. For example, as a child he was more of a quiet individual and now he poses for ads in his underwear (his own brand). Nothing wrong with that, I loved all the images of Cristiano in this film. There's also an interesting piece in this documentary where there is an astrologer, who directly relates Cristiano's communication style with his astrological sign. He said since Cristiano is an Aquarius that is partly why he excels in his communication. I don't know if that's true, but very interesting and is working for Cristiano. Before watching this film, I wouldn't have called myself a Cristiano fan, but now I am.

Horribly done, couldn't watch more then 10 minutes, the narrator speaks brazilian portuguese and spanish to imitate the life of a portuguese person - this makes no sense at all. As a Ronaldo fan, this is not it, shouldn't even be done. Just get somebody to speak the language of the legend Cristiano Ronaldo and not some fake narrators. For english people might not make a difference but if you understand portuguese you can see how poorly it is really done and how they didn't even try to make it realistic. This is disgusting, Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the most important persons from Portugal and you make a documentary about is life in spanish and brazilian portuguese? FIRE WHOEVER MADE THAT CHOICE.

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.
