Review of Pelé

Pelé (2021)
7/10
Insight Into Pelé The Legend
4 April 2022
This is a thorough and straightforward documentary about the most famous futball player of his time; Pelé. It started at highlighting his talent before he ever played professionally through how he became a national hero. It showed key games and plays as well as the three World Cups he helped his Brazilian team to win. It touched on him being used politically and how he was not outspoken about Brazil's time under dictatorship as he too had fears about speaking against the forceful governmental rule. But it did highlight how a winning futball team can unite a country better than any politician. This is competently done and you even get to hear from Pelé himself who now walks with a walker.
