The Jamaican bobsled team

5 stars

30 Oct 2020

I really enjoyed this film.My favourite character was Sanka(Im not sure if thats how you spelled it) as he was really funny and sarcastic. Its about a man that wanted to run in the Olympics for Jamaica but one of his competitors trips him over and he doesn't make the cut.Suddenly he gets the idea of bobsledding.Him and his friend gather up a team and get ready for the Olympics...

Id reccomend this film to all ages, it has like one swear word. It has good music and amazing costumes.I liked how it was about black history and not a very popular sport.And its about overcoming prejudice and getting through negativity, its also a feel good film.
