Cheerful comedy about how hot and sunny Jamaica came to enter a bobsled team in the 1988 Winter Olympics.

I love this film even thou I watched this film before I still was mega excited to see it again. I love this film I would definitely recommend this film because it's funny and stupid but in a good way. It starts with Derice and he wants to be the first Jamaican Bobsleigh team but in this bobsleigh he needs four people he has one [ him ] so he asks his best friend Sanka ' Would you help me ' and the answer is ' NO ! ' but he eventually says ' fine ' but he still needs two more people so he eventually gets two more people Junior and Yul so off the adventure and the story goes off. My favourite character is probably Sanka because he stupid and funny and . . . well hes so comedy. My favourite part is , well I have two parts one. Jul is the tough , strong one and he is arguing with Sanka and Jul says ' I'm gonna beat your butt up ' and Sanka says back ' how about I draw a line down your face so it looks like a butt ! '. And my other favourite part is when the crew is going to the winder Olympics and the coach walks out side the airport and it snow heavy and all the team are gobsmacked and then Sanka takes all the clothes out the bag and puts then on and runs outside and has the bag on him !!! [ if you don't get why they are gobsmacked , when you think of Jamaica you think of palm trees and sun ] Also music was like Jazz-ish maybe Reggae. I would put this 7+.
