Cool Runnings

Cool Runnings

You?ll love Cool Runnings ? the outrageously funny comedy hit inspired by the true story of Jamaica?s first Olympic bobsled team. They were four unlikely athletes with one impossible dream. Now, with the help of an ex-champion as their coach (John Candy), four Jamaicans leave their sunny tropical island home and enter the chilly Winter Olympics to compete for the gold in a sport they know nothing about ? bobsled racing!

Synopsis: A team of Jamaicans compete for Olympic gold in bobsled racing with the help of their has-been coach.
