Leave your thoughts about Pelé: Birth of a Legend.
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderWhen the movie is only 22 minutes old the first time it depicts a crowd chanting Pelé's name, be glad it showed some restraint and waited that long. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryIt is a portrait of a player and his country, and even if the film takes a conventional route to its destination, fans of the game should still enjoy it. |
| Anchorage PressIndra ArriagaThe film is beautiful and entertaining even though it has some limitations, particularly in the oversimplification of the economic and racial dynamics surrounding places and events. |
| The Times of IndiaReagan Gavin RasquinhaThe good points outweigh the bad, and if you're a football fan, you'll realize why football's 'the beautiful game' description came to be associated with Pele. |
| Biography.comMaria GarciaThe film's predictability is counterbalanced by a terrific score comprised of several styles of Latin music, colorful production design, lots of special effects, and some memorable plays by the child actors who portray Pelé. |
| The Straits Times (Singapore)John LuiExciting football is the film's strongest suit. |
| The Seattle TimesSoren AndersenInspiration, old-fashioned style, is the main course being served in Pelé: Birth of a Legend. In essence commissioned by the soccer icon, who is credited as one of the picture’s executive producers, “Pelé” is hagiography. But appealing hagiography. |
| The Film StageJared MobarakLibatique isn’t messing around and his involvement is proof that the movie shouldn’t be dismissed. The cinematography got my attention and Pelé’s artistry (re-enacted or not) earned my emotional investment. |
| The New Paper (Singapore)Joanne SohThankfully, the actors who play Pele - Leonardo Lima Carvalho as kid Pele and Kevin de Paula as young Pele - are so genuine and have such nifty footwork that they make the proceedings fun and beautiful. |
| EspinofMikel ZorrillaNot one of those horrible biopics we've seen lately, but nothing that stands out either. [Full review in Spanish] |
