“For the American soccer fan, then, Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinary Story of the New York Cosmos is like a bolt of lightning on a sunny day: an explosion of sudden, blinding power that comes utterly out of nowhere, so unexpected that it leaves you breathless. It’s a wide-eyed, delirious celebration of American soccer, the likes of which we’ve never seen. And it’s indescribably wonderful, the kind of film that brings a smile to your face the moment it begins and doesn’t let go.” (Cinematical)
“As irresistibly brash as its unwieldy title, Once in a Lifetime: The Extraordinary Story of the New York Cosmos is the perfect tailgate party for Americans who may not care a dribble about the World Cup — but will after watching this infectiously energetic documentary.” (Entertainment Weekly)
