If you are a fan of cricket or sports/politics documentaries then this is a must watch. This looks at probably the best cricket team of the last fifty years and one that did not lose a test series during the 1980s. The film looks at what happened to the team in Australia facing two fast bowlers and how they decided to face fire with fire, an unheard of bowling attack of four fast bowlers, all bowling around 90mph plus.

So the film itself, it has plenty of archive footage some of it brutal, and interviews with the players in the team and other people from the West Indies including Bunny Wailer. It is a good film, I enjoy it, plenty of music and history of a team that was great to watch. It also shows the problems and politics of the team and what they faced around the world and the laws in the UK at the time that were wrong.

Overall I give this film 7/10. I love cricket and fast bowling and this shows the best of all time at that.
