Sprint

"Sprint" is a gripping and inspiring docuseries that delves into the high-octane world of sprinting, spotlighting the journeys of athletes like Noah Lyles, Sha'Carri Richardson, Shericka Jackson, Fred Kerley, Zharles Hughes, Marcell Jacobs and few other great athletes of today's era. The series shines with its authenticity, capturing the raw emotions, relentless training, and personal challenges faced by these world-class sprinters. What sets Sprint apart is its unscripted nature, allowing viewers to witness the athletes' true grit and determination as they strive for greatness.

The storytelling is enhanced by a dynamic soundtrack that perfectly complements the intensity and drama on screen, making each moment more powerful. The series does an excellent job of balancing the athletes' professional achievements with their personal stories, giving viewers a well-rounded understanding of what it takes to compete at the highest level.

The cinematography is stunning, capturing both the thrill of the race and the quieter, reflective moments of the athletes. Sprint is more than just a sports documentary; it's a celebration of human spirit and perseverance. Whether you're a track and field enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates a well-crafted documentary, Sprint is a must-watch that will leave you both moved and motivated.

4 episodes were not enough for a post Olympics follow-up season. That said I really enjoyed this and hope that they continue future seasons.

As for those complaining about "too many Americans"... has it occurred to them that since this is a followup to the Olympics and the USA (one nation) won a whopping 2/3 of the Sprint medals, it stands to reason that a lot of USA athletes would be profiled? Every sprint Olympic medalist regardless of nation was profiled except one, Brittany Brown (an American). USA Medalist Sha'carri Richardson opted out of participation in the show.

Conversely, we got a lot of coverage of multiple athletes who neither medaled or hardly showed up at the Olympics - none of which were American, unless you count the minor mention of Chris Coleman. Perhaps those upset are more upset that the series reminds them of the USA's dominance this Olympics.

While the first series is maybe the best about sports on Netflix , the second one returns to the lower level of the channel, on the first one there is the right balance between personal and sport life, the athletes show maybe their best side, the second one is an annoying show of self marketing, pumped ego, dresses and painted naild, looking at the images with all the freedom given to the videomakers, i worked at international events like this and not all the people can go where these people go, there is nothing interesting to see during the olympics. At the moment the sport shows on the "channel of that famous shop" remains as average absolutely better.

Netflix is too focused on talking to US audiences, often at the expense of viewers around the rest of the world. But what is really frustrating here is that the US characters are also awful -- they are focussed as much on putting the other competitors off as they are on being their absolute best. They're happy winning by messing with a competitor's head rather than winning fair and square. It's an ugly form of bad sportsmanship from the empire with the most resources. This series does not have the warmth needed to care about the struggle and grit of the egomaniacs they've chosen to focus on. Disappointing.

This was such a compelling watch! I have seen a number of sports documentaries but this was one of my favorites. I started my first episode thinking I would watch a few minutes and ended up finishing the entire series in a single day.

This series does a good job of taking you behind the scenes and giving you a glimpse into the lives and training of the world's best sprinters. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the various male and female athletes. At first some in particular do not seem very likeable, but by the end of the series I found myself cheering for sprinters I initially disliked.

I hope there are more seasons to come.
