Product Description
The Miss Madison may have seen better days, but she's about to go out in a blaze of glory. The pride of Madison, Indiana, the dilapidated hydroplane's been entered in the 1971 Gold Cup Championship race, whose $50,000 prize money has been raised by the town itself. Chosen to pilot the craft is Jim McCormick (Jim Caviezel, The Passion of the Christ), a local man who's sacrificed his family's future to enter the race. Supported by an idolizing son (Jake Lloyd, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace), an understanding wife (Mary McCormack, Full Frontal) and a legendary mechanic (Academy Award®-Nominee Bruce Dern, Best Supporting Actor, Coming Home, 1978), Jim takes the Miss Madison on her final voyage, in a race to the finish that will leave you cheering!

- Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2024Too bad there aren’t more movies available like this for families to watch and enjoy together.
But this is a classic that we sure have enjoyed.
And Amazon sellers are always the best.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2005I first heard about the movie, "Madison," on the Madison, Indiana website, "[...]," and then I saw the movie in a theatre down the street from my daughter's home in Burbank, California. This movie was made for Madisonians like me, I love movies and I love Madison, Indiana. I grew up there. I attended the Madison High School Class of 1958, 40th Reunion during Labor Day weekend in 1998. The reunion happened to coincide with the Regatta weekend. It was nice to know there was still a Madison Regatta and to hear the thunder boats roar up and down the river. I amazed that everyone I spoke with in Madison seemed so knowledgeable about hydroplane racing. They are not hicks. The harshest critics of the movie live in Madison, Indiana. Madison, Indiana has been the setting for two films in my lifetime, "Some Came Running (1958)", and, "Madison (2000)". That's pretty good for a nowhere town. The old town photographs pretty well. Madison is a good family film about hydroplane racing. The Bindley brothers did a fine job. I bought the DVD and will recommend it to my friends and associates.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2005As one who spent many a summer weekend in the town of Madison during the seventies, it's as if this movie were custom made for folks like us, so objectivity is somewhat out the window.
Nonetheless, one need not be a Hoosier to enjoy this movie, based on a true story about a small town team with no budget, professional talent, inventory or modern technology taking on the likes of "Budweiser" and "Atlas Van Lines" and succeeding beyond imagination.
This film won a standing ovation at the Cannes film festival. How often do you see a standing ovation for a film?
John Mellencamp's narration also adds a nice Hoosier touch.
For those who would quibble that the facts aren't 100% straight, the boats are not the correct vintage, etc. it is well to remember that this is a movie based on a true story, whereas the Wide World of Sports account is the better documentary.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2020I am from Madison and can remember when they were making this movie. I often wandered when it was going to come out , was looking forward to watching it. I heard the production company was having money problems in getting the movie to film , but the end result was a light hearted movie you can wrap your heart around and a small Town in Indiana did just that . A great cast of characters ,Beautiful scenery , all shot mostly in the Historic small town of Madison, Indiana . A must see
- Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2014This is a Jim Caviezel movie. This is a 'feel good' movie that would be appropriate for most families. I don't remember exactly, but it may have 2 or 3 cuss words. There is no sex to worry about. Based on a true story, it is the kind that lifts you up at the end.
Caviezel is in the lead role. Because of the type of movie it is, Caviezel does not get to show off his great acting abilities.
Good movie, arrived on time and in good shape.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2023Love this true story movie! Love Jim Caviezel! They are both Great!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2022This is a top-tier film that ranks up there with 'Hoosiers' for providing a real sense of a time and a place and the people who dwell there. Ostensibly, it's about competition, but the atmosphere of the film is what sets it apart from many similarly-themed films.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2013I love this movie. The actors are terrific. When I first saw this movie, seven or eight years ago, I had never heard of Jim Caviezel. After watching the film, I thought he deserved to be working a lot. I also thought John Mellencamp did a wonderful job of narrating.
I have lived in Indiana all my life and I have visited Madison on several occasions but I did not know about the race until I watched this movie. So, while it was a very entertaining movie, it is depicts an interesting slice of Indiana history.
