I have been watching David Beckham through out his career, I can't get enough of him.....

Contrary to the other review, I found this program to be insightful and well done. I enjoyed learning about his life outside of soccer. The interviews were very informative.

SOCCER/FOOTBALL FANS: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS DVD. I should have guessed before buying this that it would be the sports equivalent of the E! channel, but with worse copy. this is horrible stuff, unless you need to know every detail about his wife, where he put his tattoo, why he thinks wearing a sarong is cool, or what it's like to have breakfast with the Beckhams. this is all paparazzi-and-headline gobbledygook. you get some footage of the World Cup red card and his first goal with Man.United, but incredibly, none of his goal-from-half, the goal vs. Greece from a direct free kick, or any substantial footage of the treble, or even playing alongside Cantona, his mentor. what you get is a few sound bites of Cantona interviewed somewhere in the French wine country, looking like a poet in exile. save your money, there are other dvds about him. but because the public seems only to give a damn about his image and private life, I'm hesitant to get disappointed again!
