It's an OK doc with insight on Maradona's life, especially his time at Napoli. But while a football fan, I wasn't that much into it, it's more about his personal life than his football achievements, though they are addressed. Eventually it's nice to learn a bit more about him, but it felt like nothing too revelatory.

Interesting. I was looking forward to this because Asif Karpadia directed the brilliant Senna.

May still give it a go.

I didn't see that Senna doc. but I did see the '95 BBC doc. on Senna, that was pretty good.

I'm not that easy with documentaries and don't watch many of them either, this Maradona one is not bad at all, just don't feel it makes for anything must see.

The 95' BBC one is good.

If you do get around to seeing Senna - keen to hear your thoughts (in comparison to the BBC one, Maradonna and sports docos in general).
