This movie takes you back in history when the unsettled time of war was upon us. The Cold War. But this is not a "war movie" it's a sports movie. This is the story about a United States unit defeating the Soviet Russians, on ice. The 1980 Olympics took place on U.S. soil, Lake Placid, NY where the U.S. defeated the Soviet Russians to move on to the gold medal round. Very good look at how Coach Herb Brooks studied his enemy and practied like his enemy and dominated his enemy. Fantastic story and non stop action. Will keep you on your edge of your seat. This might be the best true sports movie of all time. It truly is a miracle.
