I have to begin this by saying one thing: if you don't love to watch Ronaldo play football then you just don't like the game.
I've had something of a front row seat in the Ronaldo-Messi head-to-head competition as has every football fan living in Spain. They are the two best players in the world today as their collective dominance on winning the Balon D'Or would suggest.
We get it. Ronaldo is one of the best players in the world, he's rich, he's famous, he has a garage full of cars, and he's handsome. His completely false humility and his pantomime of being a loving father (where's mom?) are painful to watch. He always seems miserable to me when I see him in interviews. I think playing second fiddle to Messi has seriously damaged his psyche. Here is the difference between the two players: Ronaldo is the best finisher in the game, hands down. Messi is the player that will astonish everyone in a stadium or at a bar with his play. On so many occasions I have seen people burst out laughing with disbelief at a Messi goal. And Messi doesn't rate himself in comparison to Ronaldo while the opposite is obviously true. While it is impossible for any fan to hate Messi, Ronaldo makes it easy for people to dislike him as a person. Why is that? I would love to be Ronaldo's press agent to change this fact.
The first thing that I would tell him is that he should stop diving. He fakes so many injuries that you would think he was auditioning for a role on a TV hospital drama. I've never, ever seen Messi dive. Never. There are times when you think that Ronaldo invented this form of cheating. He's too good of a player to cheat yet he does it at every opportunity.
Next I would tell him to stop celebrating every goal he scores. Your team manufactured many of those goals and all you did was tap it into the net. Get over yourself. Try humility, or at least a bit. Even when he admits that his greatest weakness is giving his best, as he does in this film, he sounds disingenuous.
Thirdly, I would tell him to keep his mouth shut when talking about games, especially whining about the refs after a loss, something Jose Mourinho seemed to coach him on extensively at Real Madrid. Nobody whines more than Mourinho but Ronaldo comes close. Also, at least when he is on camera, he should stay off his mobile phone as it makes him look like a teenage girl.
On a final note I would tell Ronaldo that he is only competing with Messi on the field, not for his legacy. He should study Messi. Study his humility. He should study how Ichiro Suzuki (a Japanese baseball player who plays in the USA) dealt with his success and fame as a player. Just be happy and enjoy your life.

The Second Best Player in the World!
I liked the relationship of him with his son, passionate...
I liked it a lot, despite his arrogant air (okay, can he, I lost count, 7 cars?),but we also saw him in intimacy, in humility, his family side is cute, the loss of his father because of drinking, his mother always present, and who admitted that CR7 was not wanted, on the contrary, she would have tried an abortion that was not successful, a beautiful documentary, extreme professionalism, commitment and competence, in addition to an innate talent and beauty, I liked the relationship of him with his son, passionate...
