Cool Runnings (DVD, 1999)

My daughter wanted to add it to her collections of her favorite movies. Excellent purchase. Ebay is an excellent place to add DVD to collections.

I bought Cool Runnings to show my 5th graders. I thought it would be a great movie to show since the Olympics are starting. No go!! Too much inappropriate language for students.

This is a very funny movie.Maybe one of the best I've ever seen and it makes me appreciate how America has all of these Olympic teams.

DVD was in excellent condition, still in original wrapping! The only improvement I would suggest is that shipping be handled more quickly.

I love this movie. The story is awesome and the characters are very interesting! I have watched this movie since I was 8 and still love it now at the age of 18! I would recommend this movie to anyone!!!

Cool Runnings is one of my favorite movies. The acting is believable and it has a broad appeal because it contains something for everyone; there is comedy, drama, life values and lessons, and it is based on the true story of the 1988 Olympic Jamaican bobsled team. It's a movie for anyone who believes in standing up for what you believe and working hard to accomplish it. I recommend this as a great family movie.

I remember this movie as a kid. It's so funny! I bought it because my friend loves it, and so she asked me to buy it for her as a present for her mom. Her mom loves the movie too.

I've watched this movie mutiple times and it never gets old. I had it on VHS when I was a child and I missed watching it. It is a master piece that should be added to everyones collection.

Good movie. Its is a great movie that will make you laugh. Its a classic that I will have in my collection for a long time.

I LOVE COOL RUNNINGS. IT IS A REALLY GOOD MOVIES AND I LOVE JOHN CANDY EVEN THOUGH HE IS NOT WITH US ANYMORE. JOHN CANDY WAS A GREAT ACTOR.

I have always loved this movie and was thrilled to find it on ebay at such a reasonable price! I sorta "grew up" with this movie and wanted to share it with my pre-teen kids. It is a feel good movie that is entertaining and makes you think about prejudices. Perfect movie for a family night!

I AM GLAD THAT I HAVE FINALLY FOUND THIS MOVIE. I HAD IT ON VHS. I LOVE SEEING THIS MOVIE IT IS SO FUNNY.

COOL RUNNINGS is funny without resorting to sexual jokes or smutty language. It's the story of the first Jamaican bobsled team to make it to the Olympics. If you've watched other underdog sports movies (THE LONGEST YARD or DODGEBALL), you may THINK you know the outcome. But COOL RUNNINGS is not only more realistic than most of these movies (how often in REAL LIFE does a ragtag team of misfits with little training or equipment actually defeat EVERYONE else?), it teaches a valuable lesson by re-defining the meaning of success. The Jamaican bobsled team members are heroes; they don't have to crush all opposition to be "winners" at their sport. Sometimes, doing your best IS enough. Too bad more underdog sports movies can't portray this message as effectively. A+!

Its funny and I like it, I like how it was put together and i remember watching it as a kid, that's why i bought it now.

My husband and i both really love the movie 'Cool Runnings'. He loves the actor John Candy and I to watch the guys bob-sledding, i think its a really neat sport on ice.

Received the DVD in Good Shape and Quickly. Excellent Service. I don't know why I am required to put in 100 characters. This seems silly.

Fun-loving and enjoyable movie. Humor is healthy and the message about "never-giving-up" is something we all need to remember

fast shipment great product would highly recommend. great movie great price could not pass it up. a+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Great DVD at a great price. Would buy from this person again. I like the price and can not think of anything I dislike.

I had Cool Runnings on VHS but I no longer have it and I wanted it to get it on DVD anyway. I couldn't find it in the stores, so I tried e-bay. It took a few tries (lost a couple bids) but I finally won an auction. Obviously a popular movie even though it is a little older. It doesn't matter how many times I have seen it, I always laugh and I always cry. I just really enjoy watching this movie.

great service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​!!!!!!!!

"Cool Runnings" was probably the first movie I ever saw "based on a true story". I've loved it ever since! I really enjoyed the humor, which wasn't simply slap stick, but was very witty, too. Doug E. Doug made the movie extremely funny, while John Candy was immortalized with his great acting ability and humor.

The story is about the first Jamaican bobsled team that made it to the Winter Olympics of '88. However, the 4 Jamaicans do not begin with the ambition of being Gold Medal Bobsledders. Instead, after 3 of the 4 miss out on their chance to go to the Summer Olympics in South Korea for track. Enter John Candy, an American bookie who was originally a 2-time Gold medalist in Bobsledding (however, he was also disqualified and told never to compete again because he cheated on his last sled race!). Candy helps the team of 4 (Derice, Sanka, Yul, & Junior) become an unbeatable force, and they make it to the Winter Olympic tryouts in Calgary! From there, they must overcome the pressures of being a team that is not from a country covered in ice, without a legacy in the sport, and the trials of becoming a team worthy of respect.

I've enjoyed "Cool Runnings" time and again, and I do not believe this classic will ever...EVER...lose it's place in my heart!

GREAT MOVIE WITH AN AMAZINGLY WIDE SPREAD DETERMINATION BEHIND EACH OF THE COOL RUNNING PARTICIPANTS TO MAKE IT TO THE OLYMPICS...............I LOVE THIS MOVIE AND STILL GET A FEELING OF PRIDE FOR THEM AS THEY CROSS THE FINISH LINE.
