Title: Don't Waste Your Money
Review: i saw this documentary when it was on tv and at times I had to laugh just to keep from crying about what a travesty this is. First, none of these "runners" qualified to run Boston. Think of the thousands of serious runners who train for months to run fast enough in an another Marathon simply to qualify. These people don't deserve a spot at Boston. Second, the film made a big deal about these people being able to finish the race. Some of them took 5-6 hours to complete the race. It is not right for people who haven't earned their way into the race to take up space and tie up the roads. If you can't run under 5 hours at Boston, you shouldn't run-period! It's a race. There are plenty of "events" available to people like these and the "Team in Training" types where they can pat themselves on the back for running 15 minute miles. Do that. To make a movie about these people celebrating their accomplishments is a slap in the face to any serious runner.
Is the review positive or negative?
