A worthy follow-up to Remember The Goal

Where the film really works is as a sports movie. The concept is brilliantly worked, and the strategic and scientific approach of the coach sets it apart from most other sports movies, which tend to rely on ultimately less impressive "charismatic" leaders to bring the best out of their athlete. Not that Allee Sutton Hethcoat isn't charismatic, it's just that her character Coach Donnelly doesn't rely on it to make up for a lack of a coherent coaching approach.

Where The Perfect Race falls down is that it doesn't know its strength and instead tries first and foremost to be a Christian movie, which once again means crowbarring in biblical analogies to risible effect. And for what? Pandering to an insular echo chamber of Christian viewers only denies it the wider viewing that it deserves.

Made me want to start running. Forrest Gump would be proud.

Real feel good movie. Bible scripture througout to give non believers an opportinity to hear the gospel. Loved it. This type of movie truly reminds me why Hollywood is failing and while small, independent companies are flourishing. I grew up with Rocky and The Karate Kid. This movie fits that mold. I am hoping that they keep making these types of movies for years to come. It will give my child and hopefully grandchildren something wholesome to watch in 2023. I will fi ish by saying that the two lead characters in the movie are strong women. With all of the talk of transgenders these days it was nice to see a movie about real female athletes.
