Cool runnings (1993) (8/10)

A refresing movie by any standards. Kinda improbable, but well handled by setting the improbability right by combining it with the moral high ground of completing a mission, no matter what. The will to suceed, the difficulties, the politics, the deceit and the good will are all there. Very economic dialogue and action. Coach-player and father-son relationships are also depcited beautifully. All in all, a nice balence of almost everything. Worth watching and rewatching. Senior brother of Jo Jita Wohi Sikander and Iqbal, if you HAVE to compare.
