Rocky? Rocky 2-4? Slap Shot (1977) is fantastic.

For basketball I’d say Hoosiers (1986) is good. For American Football? Jerry Maguire (1996).

What are the best soccer, cricket, or racing movies?

    I don’t watch many sports now but watched these movies a ton as a kid:

    the rookie - baseball

    the air up there - basketball

    caddyshack - golf

    kingpin - bowling (the big Lebowski is my favorite movie of all time, but I don’t really consider it a “bowling” movie)

    the wizard - competitive gaming

    cool runnings - bobsledding

    the big green - soccer
