Give it a wide berth especially if you know anything at all about athletics.
From the racial stereotyping to the sloppy attempt at romantic subplot through to the wholly inaccurate depiction of athletics, this is a slack attempt at a rags to riches feel good drama.
The lack of likeable characters make this a completely cold experience.
The athletics storyline is lacking any reality and accuracy and if anything is insulting to real professional athletes and the hard work they put in and sacrifices they make.
Made solely to cash in on London 2012.
My advice find a better way to spend a couple of hours.
