Cool Runnings always fascinated me because In the true story the opposite happened. The other countries were incredibly supportive of the Jamaican team and some even offered them their good sleds so they would have a better chance of qualifying.
I thought Cool Runnings was great fun and there isn’t much reason to overthink the movie. Sure, I noticed a few of the unnecessary stereotypes in the movies but immediately dismissed them.
A bit too hard on "Malice". It's not a masterpiece, but for mystery fans like myself, its enjoyable and its not as confusing as they stated, also there is a reason why the serial killer plot is included. Albeit a small reason but a reason nonetheless. I loved watching these guys most of my life. They however are infected by a condition most critics of entertainment have...They hardly take any film they watch at face value...If they don't see the kind of true depth that usually is reserved for serious dramas of the human condition, in a genre film that's just aiming for you to come along for the ride...they dismiss it as bad. In other words, They'll love Saving Private Ryan, but they'll dismiss Bachelor Party because it doesn't have the " emotional depth" of Ryan...ehh what can you do!..lol....A scorpion can't help being a scorpion...lol
It’s sad that Siskel and Ebert can see the inspiration in much worse movies, but not in cool Runnings. This is a great film, based on a true story. They really blew this review and I doubt they even watched this movie. I also doubt they ever played any sports
R.I.P Siskel, Ebert and Robert Altman.
Agreed and Short Cuts is such a Brilliant Film
You can see where Paul Thomas Anderson got his Directing Style
@@kdohertygizbur yeah and its not a coincidence that Julianne Moore was in Magnolia as well.
@@kdohertygizbur I have Short Cuts on dvd.
Mind if I add, R.I.P. John Candy?

Ebert describes Siskel and himself at 19:16.
He practically punches that last word.
Nicole kidman saying take me upstairs and f..k me is a classic line of all time
The Actor who voiced Archie the Robo Dog
Sure yeah Michael J Fox
Alec Baldwin's physician character has a serious God complex in "Malice".
“ I’m thinking of a movie. “
“ is it a good movie?”
“ it has its moments. “
“Cool Runnings.”
“Got it.”
