| VHS Tape Description Based on an improbable but true story, Cool Runnings concerns the Jamaican bobsled team that competed in the 1988 Winter Olympics. Director Jon Turteltaub (Phenomenon) does a fine job with both the absurdity of the situation (the athletes had never even seen snow) and the passion behind it (their desire to compete and win). John Candy, in one of his last roles, is touching as a disgraced coach who seizes the opportunity to work with the Jamaicans as a chance for redemption. The bobsled scenes look good, and the races are exciting. The climax, which is entirely unexpected, takes the film to a wholly different level, even if events in the story don't quite match the facts. --Tom Keogh |

Cool Running Very satisfied with the promptness of ordering through Amazon; the product was in perfect condition
Cool Runnings Love this movie. Very happy with this DVD. I had the same movie before but for some reason it would not play any more. Never had that happen with any other DVD I own.
Very Entertaining! Excellent movie based on a true story about a group of Jamaican athletes who come together under difficult circumstances to compete in the olympics as a bobsled team! Very humorous, good comedy with very good acting. They picked all the right actors for each character. There are obstacles to overcome amongst themselves, in addition to external forces. You will applaud the ending! |
