Kurt Russell IS HERB BROOKS!!!

Rating: Null/10 (5 February 2004)

As a life long fan of Kurt Russell, I was impressed. As always, Kurt Russell delivers the goods. He had the attire, accent etc. of a hardcore coach in the era of Jimmy Carter, Soviet Union, high gas prices and the 1980 Olympics. I hope Kurt Russell gets recognized. Geeze, I had no idea tha Herb was such a mean coach!! He was a GOOD coach but he was very hard on his players!! I loved that part where his team loses to Norway....and after the game, Kurt Russell makes them do skating drills for what appears to he HOURS!!! I was shocked!!! That was good. The best part of the movie for me, was watching Kurt Russell go back into the empty hallway of the skating arena...and trying to not let his enthusiasm explode after defeating the Soviets. Thank you Kurt Russell!!!!!
