Great message

4 stars

08 Jul 2018

I thought that cool running’s was a fairly good movie. I must admit that I didn’t love it. However I do feel like it has a really powerful message that is great inspiration to not give up and to not to listen to people trying to bring you down. The film is about four men, who want to be in the Olympics and when an accident happens in the Olympic running trials they decide to do bobsledding. They are the first team from their country to ever compete because they have no snow but through not giving up they make it to the Olympics. I am glad I saw this film but in my opinion it’s not incredible.
