A straightforward, no-frills telling of an amazing tale.

Jan 2, 2025

A well done, but somewhat predictable sports movie. If you like sports movies, as I do, you are probably going to have a good time with this. It hits all the major beats and moments you look for in the genre, but doesn't really give you much of anything new. The closest it comes to having something really stand out is probably the relationship between Owens and the German Olympian - Carl "Luz" Long. While being a true story, there was something in the execution of their moments that felt a bit more inspired.

Not bad, it's pretty good. I think this is pretty close to the best they could do with what they had to work with. I don't know that you could do much more to show how meaningful it was, track and field just doesn't matter anymore, and you'd have to make it a 4 hour ordeal to really get people now to understand.

A wonderful movie about a wonderful person who lived wonderfully. i am grateful for having seen this movie and all the thinking that it should inspire in all of us to be better and kinder.

Disappointed regarding historic accuracy of the film. The film depicted the Los Angeles Colosseum as the site of the 1935 NCAA Track & Field Championships when it actually took place at Edwards Field at the University of California, Berkeley. I know this because my father, who was in high school at the time, attended the meet and saw Jesse Owen's amazing performance. Go Bears!!!!

One of the best biopics I have seen in years!!!

This was an awe-inspiring drama that touches the heart. Watching Black athlete Jessie Owens win 4 gold medals in 1936 Nazi Germany had me cheering him on. The sad truth is that Mr. Owens struggled to make ends meet despite his fame.

So so bio epic. Not that bad but not that great as well

Better than I expected. Seeing the huge olympic stadium with Hitler and the nazi crowd in color and with surround sound was quite an experience.

Funny and original, LOL, ages 13+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Biopic su Jesse James che resta molto fedele a ciò che fu realmente, senza indorare la pillola e senza eccessive celebrazioni del mito americano; ottimo nel non nascondere tutti i problemi e gli intrighi che girarono intorno a quelle Olimpiadi. Peccato che le gare siano rappresentate in maniera abbastanza semplicistica e che venga dato tanto, forse troppo spazio, alla figura dell'allenatore; per nulla originale. Ottima la parte di foto e video reali, mancano totalmente i riferimenti al film girato durante i giochi dalla regista tedesca.

This sports movie was really good. Stephan James, Jason Sudeikis, Jeremy Irons, and the rest of the cast did a great job in this movie. This true story about the legendary Olympic athlete Jesse Owens was dramatic and inspirational. It's a great story about believing in yourself and proving to the world that anyone can do extraordinary things. If you haven't seen this movie yet, check it out sometime. It's worth watching.

A great movie about Jesse Owens and his path to being famous.

I enjoyed this one, great story about the life & times of Jessie Owens and the racial world he lived in 1936 leading up to the Olympics in Nazi Germany and how he overcame the obstacles he faced even in his own country of America.
