Robbie Williams

You can call it ego, self-centred or whatever you like but there is no denying RWs had a presence, swagger and X factor that so many artists just don't have.

To live that life you need the beans to pull it off. He's made mistakes, and at times, I've found him annoying but the fact still remains, he entertains, has an edginess and realism about him.

This documentary can be interpreted in a number of ways, some good, some bad but it's an insight into what appears to be an honest account and he comes across well.

There is no denying his life has caused him trauma which is a familiar story with fame isn't it. Personally, I enjoyed it and could watch it again.

I am genuinely disappointed how tainted some people are in their view of this piece. Disgruntled Take That fans that seemingly still haven't grown beyond that petty fight of the past. Whereas all the band members are way past that.

This journey that Robbie has allowed us to embark on with him seemed quite surreal to me. I've grown up listening to his music, and seeing each song on a timeline of his life was quite touching.

Do you have to get every emotion or sentiment he was having? No, this isn't an entertainment show-piece. It's a very raw look into Robbie Williams, his demons, his successes and his failures. What else should he talk about in a documentary about his life?

I really loved the part about him and Guy Chambers. How their relationship developed and created some fantastic music that we still remember today. Also how Rude Box failed, and how after Leeds Robbie had climbed his way back steadily into stardom.

I was glad I saw him live twice this year. He seemed very happy with where he ended up in his life and seeing the final moments of the documentary it was clear that he had found the happy ending to his story.

Overall, this was a very touching and real documentary about an extraordinary star, that is an exceptional singer, a real showman and a genuine person.

I would imagine that Robbie has been, and still is, hard to live with over the years, At times appearing sad, manic, bolshy but not often happy, it's nice to know that now he finally does seem at peace in his life with his wife and children.

He made some really good music, some not so good, and clearly alienated a lot of people over the years. Being from Leeds, I found it sad that his two massive concerts in Leeds in 2006 were so traumatic for him.

I'd have liked to have had some input from his parents as his Dad, in particular, was often seen with him in the past and they seemed very close.

His house is absolutely gorgeous and I just hope that he is now in a good, calm and happy state of mind as he approaches 50. He is massively talented and hopefully he's lost his demons and can enjoy the rest of his life with his family, whether in the limelight or not.

Those scoring this 1 star because he was 'narcissistic' completely misunderstand how open and forthcoming he was in the making of this documentary.

I was never a fan of Take That and same with Robbie. A gf dragged me reluctantly to a show he performed in Sydney and wow he blew me away despite my love for much harder music. He was the ultimate entertainer and I'd never seen a crowd so obsessed - of course I wasn't around during The Beatles era.

Amazing to see him look back so honestly on periods of his life - his fame, his addictions, his mental breakdowns, his regrets, his loves and so on.

Definitely recommend this and ignore the haters - of which he had many (including me in my insecure days)

Watching the 200 minutes of a real true rock stars career was extremely interesting and truly helps you understand the enormity of the pressures they contend with. My respect for Robbie has skyrocketed since watching the 4 episodes and I hope the Americans wake up to this amazing entertainer. Now a family man with 4 kids, lovely house, gorgeous smart understanding wife and so much to live for I'm proud to be British when there is talent like RW about. He is an entertainer, an honest one and has never deserved the treatment those pathetic U. K. newspapers used to dish out. I like the way Robbie looks back through the screen of his computer to tell the story of his life. MJ, Prince and Any Winehouse never did this and that's a loss for history. Good on you Robbie for doing this doco. It's a shame he didn't show a bit of the Royal Albert Hall gig Swing when you're winning. For me this also showed what a talented showman he is. Robbie, for a potteries lad you have done so much to put a smile on so many faces, now smile a lot more as you deserve it dude !!
