Er sprintete in die Geschichtsbücher: Emotionales Biopic über den schwarzen Athleten Jesse Owens, der bei den Olympischen Spielen 1936 in Berlin Gold gewann. - Die Olympischen Spiele 1936 in Berlin sind überschattet von der Rassenideologie der Nazis. Hitler und seine Schergen wollen strahlende "arische" Sieger auf den Podesten sehen. Doch dann setzt ausgerechnet der schwarze US-Leichtathlet Jesse Owens (Stephan James) zu einem gewaltigen Siegeszug an. (Sky Cinema)

The name of the movie alludes to a cute ambiguity. But that changes nothing about the fact the first half of the film is pretty boring, only for it to move to some good performances in Germany, when it finally becomes somewhat interesting. Unfortunately, even so it is still only an average biopic.

I don't know if it was the film's intention, but it managed to show the flaws of all sides, so you kind of feel that no one is perfect in history and no one is a complete jerk. Except maybe for Goebbels. Everyone has their mistakes, but there is something beautiful that stands out. Sportsmanship, friendship, and hope. I can't help it, this film got me. And I admit, I would like to meet Leni.
