Like the last review I also saw this when it first aired on TV looked it up on the internet and found it on someone's YouTube channel. My son and I watched this and even though it's not exactly historically accurate, and is a little cheesy (1984 style) it was really entertaining and prompted us to look up the actual athletes and people involved to get a more realistic picture of things. Truth mixed with fiction for dramatic purposes is the best way to describe it and that isn't a knock on the movie, it's how things always are. If anyone is interested in historical tales and/or the Olympics themselves I encourage you to watch this while it's still available.
