	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Cool Runnings \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		"Cool Runnings" is a Jamaican phrase for "Peaceful Journey" and eventually becomes the name attached to the disheveled bobsled piloted by four hapless Jamaican Olympian wannabes who decide to go for the gold with a sport that their country is obviously not exactly known for.
		In its own way, "Cool Runnings" reminded me of "The Gods Must Be Crazy," which was another film that employed fairly predictable and familiar fish-out-of-water slapstick to tell its story.
		"Cool Runnings" is rated PG for violence (a barroom brawl), a few profanities and a few vulgar jokes.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- COOL RUNNINGS
		The plot of COOL RUNNINGS follows a Jamaican sprinter with Olympic aspirations, hoping to follow in his father's footsteps.
		Much of the humor in COOL RUNNINGS comes from the fish-out-of-water exploits of the four Jamaicans, who go to Calgary for the 1988 Olympic trials, where the temperature is a balmy twenty below zero.
		COOL RUNNINGS is presented in its 1.85:1 theatrical aspect ratio and looks nice when played back on a 4:3 monitor.

		I hated how uncomfortable and how painful running became when you are pushing yourself.
		Another factor that made the difference is the choice of music I listen to during my runs.
		One filled with slow ballads for my long runs and the other with upbeat songs for tempo and intervals.

	'Cool Runnings'
		But they're still making comedies like "Cool Runnings," in which cartoonish natives scratch their heads and try to make sense of the white world.
		In "Runnings," based on a real-life story, four Jamaicans get the wacky notion to represent their country in bobsledding at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary.
		It's in those wide-eyed double-take faces, the fast-motion (a la "Gods Must be Crazy"), and the way one of the Jamaican bobsledders tries (unsuccessfully, of course) to hold his overloaded bladder during a particularly bumpy run.

	Cool Runnings
		Whilst Cool Runnings is inspired by those rather unbelievable events of 1988, I would guess that the inspiration, in the best Buena Vista traditions, is rather loose and the truth would not really get in the way of good, funny story.
		Cool Runnings is another film under the direction of Jon Turteltaub that may not rank amongst the true classics of cinema, but ends up making its way into my player reasonably regularly for the very simple reason that it is an enjoyable piece of entertainment.
		Cool Runnings is an enjoyable film that makes something of an attempt to capture the true Olympic spirit.

	Cool Runnings DVD Review
		Cool Runnings tells the remarkable true story of the first ever Jamaican bobsled team, which competed in the 1988 Winter Olympics.
		The movie is a lot of fun, and while it undoubtedly takes artistic liberties with the real events, it does so with brilliant effect, resulting in one of the most enjoyable family films of the decade.
		Consistently funny and entertaining, Cool Runnings is a pefect example of a well-done feel-good live-action Disney film.

		And if the movie "Cool Runnings" can be trusted, the Jamaicans practiced on a bobsled with wheels, in the absence of any snow in their native land.
		"Cool Runnings" could have been a subversive movie, then - undermining the carefully-controlled imagery of the Olympics, which are only marginally less a retail business than, say, the Chicago Bulls.
		Now lest you think I have just given away the entire plot of "Cool Runnings," let me assure you that what I have described is not this movie, but virtually every movie of its genre.

		Language: B- Drugs/Alcohol: NA A Walt Disney movie, Cool Runnings is based upon the true story of the Jamaican bobsled team that competed in the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta.
		However, when it comes time for the big match that is evident in all sports movies, Cool Runnings gives us a break and saves the viewer from the usual first place ending.
		But don't rent Runnings to see Candy, get the movie if you are looking for a feel good film that leaves a message of determination.
