I started watching this documentary because of my interest in how Artificial Intelligence and human intelligence relate to each other. After watching this documentary for a couple of minutes I realized that it was about that boy my dad talked about many years ago. He told me then, that one of the best chess players in the world was a young boy.
The documentary shows his road to his participation in the World Chess Championship 2013 and also about how he developed as a human being. It tells even a little bit about how he developed after 2013.
It also gives a lot of hints about why Magnus is special and why he's called "The Mozart of Chess". That's what I really liked about this documentary.
Besides that I also liked that it shows an exciting story, probably because I didn't know that how the story would end. I only knew about the fact that he was that young boy that my dad had talked about.
Although I do appreciate the chess game, I am just a recreational player, that understands the difference between recreational players and people that start feeling the need to find out their FIDE-rating. This documentary shed a new light on my understanding of the difference between FIDE-rated players.
Finally, I liked it that although this documentary is about a chess player, it's most probably not necessary to be a chess player to watch it. It's worthwile to anyone who's interested in watching what someone encounters in trying to reach their top.
