A fun documentary about the American ice hockey team, which competed as underdogs in the 1980 Olympic Games and proved capable of extraordinary things. Players and others involved share their personal memories of this historic moment. A bit too sentimental and very American, but the documentary is very entertaining and makes excellent use of the rich archive material.

At least as remarkable as Eric Heiden's five gold medals was the gold medal for the US ice hockey team at the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid. The Soviet Union, which hadn't lost an international match since 1960, was the overwhelming favorite. The surviving members of the US ice hockey team, along with staff, reporters, and family, look back on the legendary miracle they accomplished. The story was adapted into the film Miracle (2004), starring Kurt Russell as the headstrong head coach Herb Brooks, but Gershberg and Rogal focus primarily on the long-term significance for the players and for the US.
