Critic Reviews
The TimesOct 8, 2025
Season 1 Review:
There was a slightly confected feel to proceedings, a pretence of messy and intimate access when it was clearly very controlled; the director Nadia Hallgren, let’s not forget, helmed the Michelle Obama hagiography Becoming. Still, her subject emerged as lively, sympathetic and drily funny.

Season 1 Review:
It is a three-hour advert for brand Beckham with no higher purpose than to fulfil the £16-maybe-£20m deal they signed with Netflix, and a companion piece to the one David did in 2023. And it works. But she is so drily funny, so clearly far more interesting and insightful than she allows herself to be here, that the waste becomes infuriating.

Season 1 Review:
Victoria herself is not unlikeable, if a little stiff; she cracks jokes, she does a dance routine with daughter Harper.

Season 1 Review:
For a documentary centered on a fashion designer (featuring the requisite cameos from Anna Wintour, Donatella Versace, and Tom Ford), we actually learn very little about Beckham’s creative process or inspirations. Instead, what we’re told repeatedly is that she has drive, which is all that matters. It all feels very much like an ad for both the label and this latest Beckham iteration.
