The Overlooked Sports Documentary
The HBO series "100 Foot Wave" is a captivating show about big wave surfers who risk their lives for an adrenaline rush, rivaling the quality of "The Last Dance".
A recent search for a documentary comparable to "The Last Dance" led to disappointment with the Lionel Messi World Cup documentary on Apple, which surprisingly made an exciting final seem dull.
They made the most entertaining final ever boring as hell, with the best footballer in history recounting the achievement of his dream like he’s telling a mechanic about a rattling noise in his car.
A previous documentary about Beckham came close to being a compelling character study, but ultimately fell short.
