Review

 

The outrageously funny comedy hit inspired by the true story of Jamaica's first Olympic bobsled team. They were four unlikely athletes with one impossible dream. Now, with the help of an ex-champion as their coach (John Candy), Derice, Sanka, Junior and Yul leave their sunny island home and enter the chilly winter Olympics to compete for the gold in a sport they know nothing about - bobsled racing!

I must say this was a favourite of mine when i was younger and it still is today, it is a funny and at times emotional film. Granted the Jamaican accents are dodgy (I should know some of my family is Jamaican!).

The subject matter is quite unique too, as far as i'm aware there are'nt too many, if any, bobsledding films out there, but for £2.99 you cant really go wrong either!

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Great Fun!

I had this film for ages and didn't bother watching 'cause i thought it looked a bit crap if i'm honest...but then a friend came over and suggested we watched it - and i loved it! Its really funny, my whole family like it. Thumbs Up!

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars A REAL DECENT FAMILY FILM!!

Warm, Very Funny and Based on a TRUE Story. Well worth the few pence to buy this DVD. Get your kids to rewatch this dvd over and over again as they get older, full of life's little inspirations to overcome any situation/hurdle with a pinch of humour to ease it along.
