A very good documentary about the complete history of one of the best football clubs in history. Definitely a recommendation for all football fans, especially for Barcelona fans. We follow the history from the very beginning and the film touches on all the important moments, periods, players and coaches who left their mark in Barcelona. I have to admit I already knew a lot before, but it was still nice to see everything in one place and chronologically.

Decent FC Barcelona documentary.

Warning: Spoilers
It's got good production value, nicely edited, high profile interviews, easy to follow narrative etc.
If you are a newer/casual football fan, I recommend it. You'll learn interesting stuff about the club and football in general.
If you are a more dedicated/hardcore Barcelona fan, you'll know most of the stuff but it's still appealing to see the interviews, highlights of the club's history etc.
If you are a hardcore football fan but not support Barcelona, it's a tossup whether you'll enjoy it. You'll probably know some of the stuff and you might get annoyed by some of the expected biased narrative. For example, the way the highly controversial Di Stefano affair is handled, claims of systemic bias against Barcelona with little to no analysis, over the top mocking of Mourinho's R.Madrid, ignoring/glossing over dark moments and periods of the club, ignoring vital figures of the club's modern success like Puyol, D.Alves, Busquets.
All in all, it's a decent effort that gains extra value by the fact that there are barely any high production football documentaries despite football being MASSIVELY popular worldwide.

As being a fan of Football Club Barcelona, it is a must watch documentrary movie. This documentary is upto Barca's golden period of time upto 2015. Here at first, club's history is narrated. Then how slowly it became great, the transitition period was described perfectly. Messi, Iniesta and Xavi shared their thoughts and dreams about this club. Moreover, some great coaches and their relationship views were picturized marvelously.
Some internal affairs and politics were also revealed here. I knew a lots of new informations from this documentary like Ronaldinho was sacked from Barca. However, La Massia(Barca's youth development) sector was another main focus. I was so amazed how Barca manages this club, the sentiments and the standard Barca fixed for the whole world. Total football and Tiki-Taka was their main key point to win so hearts all over the world. This documentary is a must watch for all football lovers specially for Barcelona fans.
