Well made sports film

Rating: 9/10 (27 June 2004)

It is very difficult to translate real life sports dramas, to engrossing tales on screen. But "Miracle" manages to exactly do that.
For a sport, not so popular across the globe, the ice-hockey game in the climax does hold the viewer's attention. Kurt Rusell gives a rocking performance as the coach who did all to change American hopes at times of despair for the nation. Overall a good script, straight forward narration and neat direction help this movie sail past most other sports movie.
Thanks
