I wish we’d get 5+ of these types of movies each year. I felt like growing up we’d see 10 of these things a year. No need to know anything going in, no cliff hanger for something later. Just a solid movie about something interesting.
Can’t say I’ve ever seen a movie about rowing before but it was great. Nailed the setting, great cinematography, gave me the gist of rowing and crew. Had compelling characters in the coach and main rower. Was it formulaic and almost basic? Yes. But it was highly enjoyable.

Completely agree, loved the cinematography and it had a very similar vibe to Seabiscuit, just a classic feel good sports movie. The book obviously is more detailed and goes deeper… but I thought this was a really good adaptation and a type of movie we don’t get enough of.
