Review of Chariots of Fire (1981) by Alex R — 01 Sep 2010
I bought a three pack of drama movies at Walmart, one was Amadeus. The other Once Upon A Time In America, and the other, Chariots Of Fire. I thought the movie had a very inspiring message. The acting was excellent, and the directing superb.
However, I thought this film was slightly overrated, not by much, but some. I enjoyed it. Vangelis' unforgettable score rounds out this good film, and everyone one involved deliver great performances.
I don't believe it's the greatest sports film ever made, but it does manage to entertain you with it's simple story. My guess is, this is a film that you need to watch a few times to be truly engrossed by it.
Well, I certainly will watch it again, and I do think this is a good film. Simple, yet effective, Chariots Of Fire is a well made film that will please any fan of sports films alike.
