Miracle.

Go. See. It. Now.

Unbelievable. Incredible. There is so much to simply love about this movie. The acting is superb (and its a sports movie). I'm still just giddy after seeing this movie 4 hours ago. When USA tied up the score 3-3 in the middle of the third against Russia, I actually shouted GOAL!!!! in the theater, I was so into the game/movie. It has all the excitement of a game 7 in the Stanley Cup finals.

And all the historical references in the movie, from the hair, the intro tune for NBC Nightly News, the old commercials, everything, it has a very real sense of nastalgia. When mixed with the incredible story and excitement of the Miracle on Ice, the sense of being there is just overpowering.

Come on, how good can it be when you know how it ends?

j/k... I've end up seeing it I'm sure. I love the 80's!
