    Pros: Great Action Scenes; Great Insight into Herb Brooks

    Cons: Not enough on Finland Game at the end

    I loved this movie. Granted, I'm a hockey die-hard. But any sports movie that's recreating something I saw live way back when that can make me shed a tear is doing something right.Kurt Russell absolutely nails the role of Herb Brooks, and t...he hockey scenes are fantastic. Hockey purists will also realize how realistic the scenes were compared to the way they actually happened.The major strength to the movie is how you get to know some of the players, along with insight into the mind of Herb Brooks. Everything he did had a purpose, and the film does a great job of illustrating his reasons for every move he made.The only knock I have is that the movie basically stopped with the Russia game. They had to play one more game two days later, against Finland, which is barely mentioned.The DVD extras are also worth watching. They show how the casting crew looked for hockey players first, and then tried to find players who not only resembled the real players from the 1980 team, but played like them as well. Skating styles, size, which hand they shot with -- not an easy task. Also, there is an ESPN roundtable discussion with Linda Cohn, Kurt Russell, and three of the players from the original team.This movie isn't a classic we'll all be gathering friends and family around the fireplace to watch twenty years from now, but it's a great feel-good sports movie.

    Pros: Hockey Action is 1st rate!!!!

    Cons: Young kids non actors.

    If You like Hockey,the scenes that replay the monumental 1980 Olympic victory over the USSR are incredible.Kurt Russell does a great job as always.The young boys are great Hockey players but pretty inexperienced Actors.Predictable(Most eveyone knows ...how it ends)yet entertaining.

    Miracle that film was made?

    Pros: Kurt Russel is awsesome

    Cons: Acting is laughable

    I enjoyed the first 20 minutes of this amateurish production. Seeing the team come together surmounting all odds including the car chase from the airport really sucked us into the story. Then the acting fell apart, first with Kurt seemingly improvi...sing to no avail. You felt sorry for him and his toupe. Yes his toupe got in the way of any dramatic repose. Shed the toup and walk the walk Kurt. No cheap props are needed here.And the smoking throughtout the movie was deplorable. How can an athlete smoke and play at the same time. Read more Less
