If you’re asking about the actual event, it was amazing. As the game progressed, even non fans realized what was happening and stopped what they were doing to watch. Russia was basically at the top of their game, they had just manhandled the NHL a few years before (with the exception of the Flyers). The actually gold medal game against Finland was anticlimatic.

One of the things I loved about the movie, since it’s based on a real event, was that it wasn’t a buzzer beater, a penalty shot, or other last second miracle for the win.
The tension of needing to hold on for 10 minutes, counting the seconds and watching the clock tick down, was palpable.
I wish Hollywood would do more sports movies like that. Stories can be dramatic and riveting without it being an “it all comes down to this” moment.
