Chariots of Fire Reviews

4/10

Best version of a sports movie? Sick music.

A little boring

Iconic music but otherwise didn’t care for it

Kinda fire

holy fucking shit what a yawnfest I had to SKIP to the race at the end, and they didn't even use the iconic music. legit watch the first 2 mins and you've already seen the whole movie. Save yourself some time

The music literally only appears at the start, not even on the end race. We were hyping ourselves up for nothing :(

The music. The running. The Britishness of it all.

Powerful true story of two Brits preparing for the 1924 Paris Olympics, Harold Abrahams and Eric Liddell, one a Jewish student attending Cambridge, the other a Scotsman born to devout Christian missionaries in China. Iconic music by Vangelis and beautiful cinematography.

Had to watch for class

Great music, Vangelis

Forced myself to watch the entire thing

Themes of motivation, purpose, and faith.
Another great score by Vangelis.

Just seemed a little rigid. Kudos to Liddell to sticking to his guns.

It was good but not the most interesting story line

Great classic. Kinda drags but the soundtrack makes it worth it.

Not a bad movie, but can’t really recommend it. This is painfully 80s and it shows. The only takeaway is the score, everything else is instantly forgettable.

Some movies are very ‘cerebral’ so good but a bit low key
