"Personal Best" is all about extending yourself to the limit and taking matters into your own hands. It still stands up after all these years. The lasting memories of this movie will always give me something to hold on to; it is just as stimulating as it was in 1982, right up to the climax. May 23, 2008

I love this movie. it was one of the first one's I saw, but they should have ended up together, but that's what you get when the movie is written by a man. April 9, 2008

Saw this movie back in 1982 when it first became a hit with soldiers and airmen alike while stationed overseas. Have long searched for the DVD version and now I've got it. Thank you very much January 18, 2008

This is most definitely NOT lesbian cinema. Rather it is a touching love story between two people; one of whom happens to be a lesbian and the other (Hemmingway), who is bi. The writing, casting and direction of this movie are top-notch. The only negative is that it is rather anti-climactic due to the ridiculous boycott of the 1980 Olympics by the US government.
