Great sports documentary. The story of the Manchester United careers of six players - David Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville and Phil Neville - who emerged as Man Utd players at the same time - 1992. More than just a study of their individual careers and performances, a look at what they and Man Utd achieved as a team and, moreover, the camaraderie between them.
It is the camaraderie aspect that makes the movie, giving an emotional content rare in documentaries.
Well-researched, with some interesting and insightful interviews. Quite different in that we don't only have interviews with the six players and their former team-mates but also with some celebrities. The celebrities represent the external view of Man Utd, and add a different dimension to the analysis of the team. The interviews with Mani (of the Stone Roses) were particularly interesting. Danny Boyle was pretty good too. Tony Blair was a bit tedious and pretentious though.
A must-see for any Manchester United Supporter, and really for any sports fan. There can't be too many documentaries that give so accurate a depiction of the brothers-in-arms feeling within a sports team.

Great sports documentary
Enjoyable documentary! 5/10
Review: I really enjoyed this documentary about the golden years of Man United when they won the treble.its a in depth look about who the 6 players who grew up together, became football heroes. It's good to see that they stayed closes friends, no matter how famous they got. I can clearly remember when they won the treble so it was good to see what happened behind the scenes. All of them brought something different to the table, which made the team at that time, so versatile and great to watch. If your a football fan, then you would enjoy this documentary and the interviews between all of the footballers were great to watch. Enjoyable!
Round-Up: It was good to see Cantona talking about his old days at Man U, but I would have liked to see some of the other players like Cole and Hughes. David Beckham is obviously the biggest star out of the lot of them, but when you see him in this documentary, he actually seemed on the same level as the rest of the team. Alex Ferguson makes an appearance, but he doesn't really go into depth about his time with the club. You don't get any deep secrets about that period, which would have made this a must watch, but you do get a little insight about how it is to play in one of the biggest teams of its time. Shame that there doing so bad now that Ferguson has left.
Budget: $1.25million Worldwide Gross: N/A
I recommend this movie to people who are into there football documentaries about Man U when they were at there peak. 5/10
