I went to spend the summer in Cambridge after seeing this film. I married a Trinity College man, a sportsman, and I still live in this beautiful town. What a difference a film can make to one's life....
possibly the greatest, most inspiring sports tale ever to be produced. Its inspiring nature makes the individual yearn to run for days. Whenever i am in need of a push in the right direction, (as a runner myself) the powerful message that this masterpiece portrays is what i turn to first!!

I remembered watching this as a kid, and for weeks after that we'd be making fun of some older folks on treadmills, singing the theme song while motioning to run in slow-mo, and asking, "Reached anywhere yet?" *hums tune
The very best movie I have ever seen in my life, a lot of messages to learn, an majestic scene that is difficult to describe is like turning our human bodies into celestial ones to meet our heavenly Father. A music which is celestial, etc. Excellent movie which I hardly can describe in few words. Heart and Soul
what the hell is this piece of shit! is this supposed to be a movie?.... even the camera moves like it's an earthquake out there.. that's not how you make a decent movie, this is bullshit..
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The music is really great, a masterpiece... but the movie is a quite stuffy provincial and uncool... I did not like it at all, apart from the plot characters history and all those things, who can believe that these guys could be students? it is so unbelievable and ridiculous they are in their 30s at least... the music and the scene on the beach is are gorgeous and by far the best in the film.
I love how white people always make movies about the past and old school WHITE athletes who did sports 80-100 years ago. Trying to make people forget that black athletes have DOMINATED athletics for the past 70 years. They'll never do a film about black runners, but they'll easily do this kind of racist bullshit.
Whoa man, I agree it would be cool to make a movie about Jesse Owens or something, but that doesn't mean this movie is racist in any way. This movie is about a man's Christian faith and the impression it made on his teammates and the world. Have you seen it?
Agreed. I would LOVE to see the funding of Soul Plane devoted to a film that promotes a positive image of the black community's contributions to society as opposed to the negative stereotypes in that film.
Obviously the money is out there to create positive films, but is the interest? If there is no precedent for public interest in a film genre studios generally won't go near it. Yet each year a new caricature-filled Tyler Perry movie hits theaters.
Racist bullshit? It's idiotic people like you who have to come along and place your unwanted comments on youtube. We don't care if you're black or not, and as far as I'm concerned you're irrelevent. This was not racist, and i couldn't care less whether your black "brothers" or whatever you call them have so called "dominated" athletics or not. You haven't realised that this is based on a TRUE story, so they must have beaten everyone whether they were black or not. So piss of, HurtingYourFeelings
