Beckham

Number of episodes: 4

David Beckham, either you’ve heard of him because of his athletic career, his marriage to Posh Spice or because of Bend It like Beckham. This limited series takes you behind the scenes of someone who’s been pretty private about his accomplishments. Hear how he got his start, what it felt like to get red-carded in the World Cup, what really happened prompting him to leave Man United for Real Madrid and much more. Even see the evolution of his haircuts. If what I just said is gibberish to you then maybe this would be a fun and educational moment for you! Yes, Victoria Beckham is in it and that just adds a layer of fun in my opinion. This was very well done and you get a feel of what being a world-class athlete in the 90s-early 00s felt like when mental health wasn’t a part of the conversation. And for those soccer fans out there there’s some cameos and interviews that might make you nostalgic.

Rating: 4.5/5
