This film is about the first ever Jamaican bobsled team. Thus movie is a comedy based on a true story that took place during the 90s. This movie is suitable for ages 5= as it deals with some themes (mainly to do with injuries) that may upset younger children. The protagonists in this film are Sanka , Derice , Yul , junior and Irv. The main storyline shows the coldness shown by the other participants and how they pulled through to compete in in the winter Olympics.
