Steve Prefontaine didn't run races. He attacked them. The fiery life and fast times of the renowned distance runner who held every record from 2,000 through 10,000 meters come home in this acclaimed and inspiration-filled movie.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Its wisdom, and clearly Mr. Towne's, lies in the film's way of filtering a young man's headstrong nature through an older man's more rueful point of view.
Fresh: As Pre, Billy Crudup is dynamite -- a magnetic star presence who's unafraid to show how Pre's drive also makes him a bit of a prick.
Fresh: Whether he would have won at the next Olympics, we'll never know. What we do know is that Towne, a man of ruefully romantic temperament, has found a soulmate in Steve Prefontaine.
Rotten: he understated cinematography by Conrad Hall and sterling work from Crudup and Sutherland lend a patina of class, yet it's in the end a po-faced film.
Customer Reviews
Outstanding
Perfect running movie portrays the life of The Pre. This movie can motivate any athlete from any sport. Watch this movie. You wont regret it.
THANK GOD
This movie is SOOO much better than Prefontaine
A must see!!!
One of my favorite movies of all time. Overall what you would expect in an uplifting, inspirational sports movie but the story is so much more and the character development is excellent. Billy Crudup was nearly perfect in this role. This is not just a great sports movie, it is a great movie.
