MIracle (2004) - Review
This was a rather serviceable accounting of events leading up to and including the 1980 "Miracle on Ice" - the highly improbable victory of the United States Olympic hockey team against the way more talented Soviet Union team. The story focuses on the coach, Herb Brooks, who is almost hauntingly portrayed by Kurt Russell. This was the first time I've seen Kurt play anything other than Kurt Russell.
Not a great movie but if you are old enough to remember Al Michaels' (voiced by himself in the movie) "Do you believe in miracles??", you'll probably find this flick worthwhile. I enjoyed it.
