Interested in your Top 5 Sports Movies.... Overall or broken down however you like.

Top 5 Overall Sport Movies....
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.

This is far too much work and some of those sports don't deserve to have a top 5 listed because most of the movies about their sport just suck. Looking at you Basketball and Hockey. I like comedies with feels.


Major League
Necessary Roughness
The Replacements
Bull Durham
Kingpin
League of Their Own
Mr. Baseball

Added to my list afte seeing others. Completely forgot about LotO and Mr. Baseball. Such great movies.

I can't argue the lists already posted with alot of interchangeable movies for top 5 drama and comedy.

How about 5 Sports movies you grew up watching.

1. Cool Runnings
2. The Sandlot
3. Little Giants
4. Space Jam
5. Johnny Tsunami

Invictus
Follow the Sun
Miracle on Ice
Pride of the Yankees
Invincible

Oh, man. This is going to be tough. To make it easier on myself, I'm not going include sports comedies (Caddyshack, Major League and Happy Gilmore would be in here if I did both and more choices)

In no particular order...

-Rocky
-Raging Bull
-Hoosiers
-The Natural
-Hoop Dreams

In no order:

Rocky
A League of Their Own
Varsity Blues
The Sandlot
The Replacements

There are so many great sports movies its truely hard to just pick 5... I was gonna do 5 in each sport but some sports are lacking in the movie department.

Heck i even love both the rollerball movies although its not a real sport lol

But cool runnings is definately a favorite of mine and the OG space jam too.

It feels like Hoop Dreams has been largely forgotten, but it's so good.
