Movie Reviews of The New York Mets 1986 World Series Collector's Edition
Movie Review: A long time since 1986
Summary: 5 Stars
Ok, so it's been a long time since 1986, but Mets fans are as patient as death and always have been. For the painful early years the Mets faithful came and rooted their Lovable Losers on until in 1969 a miracle occurred and the Mets won their first World Series.
Now simple math tells you that from 1969 to 1986 the wait was longer, but having been there for both of the wins (and the close call in 1973), I can tell you the while every World Championship is sweet, 1986 was sweet to the Nth degree. Because not only did the Mets win, but the snatched victory for the jaws of defeat...and they snatched it from the jaws of the Boston Red Sox.
Now, it's harder, watching through nostalgia tinted eyes, to hate the 1986 Sox as much as I've hated them since they finally kicked the curse and became one of the most successful teams of the 21st century (oooo I hate them now). They had some great, great players back then. But I remember hating them pretty hard at the time, and watching the Mets refuse to lose game six, then come from behind again to win game seven was ?ber sweet. The famous Buckner play still makes me grin like an idiot.
So not only are the games all here for your re-enjoyment, but the bonus disc is packed with great interviews, the post-game locker room celebration, etc. It will make the Mets fan proud all over again.
Now, how about a new world championship, guys?
