Schumacher (2021)
A tiny glimpse into one of F1 Greats
15 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The documentary is far too short to even cover half of what happened in Michael's Career spanning across over two decades. It feels the most controversial moments are mentioned in passing, the biggest triumphs once again mentioned in passing. I find what Netflix does with Drive to survive allows you to fully understand what it was like to a far greater degree than the few hours this documentary allows us to see. Watching it I had not heard about Michael's skiing accident and watching it, it felt like he had died, and by the sounds of it part of him did. I agree with the obscurity left on it because he deserves to have the privacy.

Overall it isn't a bad documentary by any means, and I do think it does well with the time it had. But I would have much rather had something twice as long going more in depth about the races, and title fights.
