Critics Consensus

A compelling and comprehensive portrait of one of basketball's great teams, The Last Dance's blend of archival footage and candid interviews confirms there's nobody quite like Mike or the team he led to victory.

[The filmmakers] do a great job telling this story in a way that makes you emotionally invested, but also riveted. This is one of the best sports documentaries I have ever seen.

For people who wonder whether we'll ever see sports dynasties again, there's a great deal here to enjoy. And if nothing else, you will certainly see some tremendous dunks.

The Last Dance reminded me that in their most fundamental form, pro sports play a crucial role in our culture - and that if there's a way to bring them back safely, it might be good for us all.

A compelling story of why money, not time, is the reason most sports dynasties reach a breaking point.

Hundreds of hours of previously unseen footage were used for The Last Dance, and it offers a unique, complex take on the man they once called "Air."

The editing and direction of The Last Dance deserve special mention as it makes for a thrilling watch that is powered by some amazing footage and soul-stirring music from the 90s.

Something revealed near the end compelled me almost as much as any film has.

Most amazing sports documentary I've ever seen !! Filmed over such a longtime that you get to live through all of their ups and downs !!!

Extremely enjoyable and entertaining show. Shows the struggles of Michael Jordan and his growth alongside the team, and really highlights the difficulty of Jordan’s life, yet his almost stubborn want almost need to never give up and push and push and always perform not only for himself but for the elation of those around him. I would highly recommend this especially if you are in need of inspiration.
