Product Description
COOL RUNNINGS
Based on an improbable but true story, Cool Runnings concerns the Jamaican bobsled team that competed in the 1988 Winter Olympics. Director Jon Turteltaub (Phenomenon) does a fine job with both the absurdity of the situation (the athletes had never even seen snow) and the passion behind it (their desire to compete and win). John Candy, in one of his last roles, is touching as a disgraced coach who seizes the opportunity to work with the Jamaicans as a chance for redemption. The bobsled scenes look good, and the races are exciting. The climax, which is entirely unexpected, takes the film to a wholly different level, even if events in the story don't quite match the facts. --Tom Keogh

Love the movie Cool Runnings and wanted to add it to my DVD library. When I saw the great price on Amazon I immediately ordered it. However, to my dismay when it arrived it was in a VHS format. My fault though because when I went back to check out the listings the letters [VHS] were in very small type next to other listngs. My advice - be sure to read the SMALL print!

LES (Washington)
It was funny, great interaction between the characters, and had a good moral to tell. It truely was about not whether you win or loose, but how you play the game. I highly recommend it as good family entertainment.
