Description

Steve Tevere wants a perfect 10. He’s an elite gymnast who dominates a field where a 9.5 can be an also-ran. It’s the little things that make the difference in Steve’s sport. It’s the big things that may hold him back forever. A troubled home life could destroy Steve’s athletic career in this stirring salute to gymnastics, dazzlingly directed by Albert Magnoli (Purple Rain) to ensure that in the vibrant competition scenes American Anthem really sings. Four-time Olympic medalist Mitch Gaylord plays Steve. Janet Jones brings her sharp dance abilities to the role of a floor-exercise superstar. And some 100 top-level gymnasts take to the rings, bars and other apparatus like the proven athletes they are. Much can be written about a champion’s prowess. Seeing these remarkable athletes in action says it so much better.

    If you're a fan of gymnastics than this is the movie to see It doesn't matter whether or not the competition is worthy of Olympic Medals What matters is this From the beginning of the film to its conclusion there is excitement that builds slowly and really hits its peak I recall the thrill that occurred at the 23rd Olympiad in Los Angeles1 .984 When the team from the United States of America won the gold medal in the team competition defeating the Chinese team that came in second and the team from Japan that came in third Every routine is superbly executed whether it's floor,balance beam or rings pommel horse high bar and horse vault Okay so what if the acting is not that good I don't care This is definitely the movie to see on my I pad Oh yeah I had the biggest crush on Mitch Gaylord also signed BackflipBaby 2.017

    I grew up on this movie too. I have watched it so many times. This is my first movie ever purchased on iTunes. I said I wouldn't purchase any movies but when I saw this movie I had too. I am not one who purchase movies. I just rent them or wait for the to come on tv so this has to be one great movie.
  • LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
