Trivia:
The notes for the first film of the Soviets that Coach Brooks is shown watching says, "19 February 1976 Moscow". moreGoofs:
Factual errors: In the very beginning of the movie, the voice-over newscast is talking about the 26th Amendment to the Constitution, which lowered the voting age to 18. The commentator remarks that the president indicated that he would sign the amendment into law. However, Constitutional amendments do not require the president's signature, simply a vote of Congress and the states. moreQuotes:
Al Michaels: Mike Eruzione, out of Boston University, the captain of this team, has just put he US ahead for the first time! moreSoundtrack:

Don't let the fact that this is a Disney movie deter you from watching a thoroughly enjoyable and adult-level sports movie for two-plus hours. Kurt Russell does an excellent job portraying coach Herb Brooks as a complex and sometimes ruthless and inscrutable leader. Very UN-Disney-like indeed.
I am not a hockey fan - in fact I dislike the game intensely - yet I enjoyed the well-crafted scenes of competitive team play. Knowing the outcome of the BIG GAME did not detract at all from the excitement and suspense surrounding it. Sort of like the suspense Ron Howard achieved in Apollo 13 (where we knew in advance the outcome, but were worried about and later relieved for our astronauts).
A must-see for sports fans and non-fans alike.
