Very Cool!!!
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
I wouldn't have my daughter watch this documentary. Nikki's consumption of sugared soft drinks, bacon, white bread processed meat sandwiches in some scenes while talking about kids who are fat in other scenes bothered me. Perhaps you can eat what you want when you run. You can. But should you? Her diet is no inspiration. And no one should exercise to the level that Nikki does. There is a whole lot of unhealthy in this documentary including emotional breakdowns that don't help her cause. She needs a whole team to deliver her junk food diet to her as well as water and bandages and etc. while she races. Ladies . . . we can do better. No amount of cool music and slow motion running shots can save this documentary from disaster.
