I purchased this DVD to see Maradona's games before and after the 1986 world cup where his performance was spectacular. The DVD was incredibly disappointing: There were very few clips of his earlier or post 1986 games and even these were shot from very poor angles. The documentary seemed to concentrate on the political and the social context of Latin football, most of which appears to have been dubbed from television. Very few games, very little insight into Maradona's life. It included is goals in 1986 which most people saw but not much else.

Big Rip off.

They have footage of him when he is 13 years old all the way through 1994 World Cup. Not just his goals and accomplishments on the field. If you are looking for goals (and are not concerned about the quality of the program!) there are many Maradona programs available, but none are as interesting as this one. The previous reviewer seemed to be upset at the lack of goals, however we all know that Maradona is a very interesting person with a remarkable life story, which is what this programs covers- His Life Story. I really liked it and watch it quite often.
