When I gave it to him, he was thrilled because it's impossible to find at the store. We went to watch the DVD as our family movie that night, and the DVD wouldn't read. The message on the TV kept coming up "Please Insert Disk" and then "Blank Disk in Drive." When I called Amazon to find out what I could do, they informed me that I couldn't return the DVD because it had been opened. How else was I supposed to know if it worked or not UNLESS I opened it? <br /> <br />The movie itself is wonderful. The company that provided it, however, could use some work.

Unfortunately, true or not, there are scenes you just don’t want children to see, and we were prettty shocked that it was rated only PG.

We could maybe have lived with one character calling another “*ssh*le”, but there is an extended scene in a bar, involving a bar fight, during which the drinking, name-calling and fighting in that scene bracket another scene in the mens room of the bar, where one of the characters looks into a mirror and says, over and over, ” I’m a bad-*ss mother who don’t take no cr*p off of nobody!”

If these don’t bother you – or if your child is of an age where you feel it’s ok for them to see these scenes – then “Cool Runnings” is an otherwise ok movie. But these scenes were of a magnitude that for us this movie was definitely not ok.

Just seems a bit far fetched to me. THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE ICE OR SNOW IN JAMAICA! Rating: 2 / 5 The previews seem to indicate that this move is about a Jamaican bobsled team.
