Sprinter

It's an okay movie but the screenplay is somewhat too slow and uninspiring. I think the directing is not quite fit for this sports movie especially it's about a very short distance sprint competition. Using the slow motion to show the last race is so dumb and the camera just focused on this young dude, making him look like running alone on the track is just so anti-climax and so low I.Q. decision. If you used slow-motion to show a Pan-American sprint race/competition, you should also use the real speed to show a complete race from the start to the end, then the viewers would get a whole and complete picture of how this young dude won that race. But instead, it never showed anything but inserted some hugging and running with his Jamaican flag on the field and the pissed off American athlete loser. This is a very dumb directing and editing job that completely made the movie looked like a fake fairy tale.

If you want to understand Jamaica, watch this film

You know the word keep it simple but real?!!!! Now that word applies nicely to this low budget Jem and I'm in no way or form am marketing that movie for any purpose other than pure movie entertainment as I see soooo many fake reviews made on here Imdb that are either doing it to promote a movie through its makers or actually incompetent enough to review movies which not everyone thinking himself good at it is actually that good or even good in the 1st place!

This is quite a routine sports picture and not many outside of athletics would be too excited about the story. The drama is fairly straightforward without making too many waves but it does showcase the absolute dedication, to be a success and how even the very best can be led down the wrong path. In a movie concerning Jamaican sprinting, the only highlight was a cameo appearance, by the legendary Usain Bolt.

Interesting story with los of Jamaican color and language and a surprise appearance of Usain Bolt. Dale Elliott does a credible job of acting.
