Top 10 Sports Films

Below is a list of the Top 10 Sports Films as voted by LoveFilm (I have no idea who they are either). I think this is an interesting bunch of films and I was very (happily) surprised to see Cool Runnings in at number 2.

Possibly due to my North American bias I think that obvious omissions from this list are: Slap Shot, Major League and Rocky IV. I do love a good sports film being the sports fanatic that I am. I love a sports film that feels you inspired as predictably its the under-dog that comes good. I really believe the world needs another hockey-based movie as I don't think that Youngblood, Mystery Alaska, and Miracle do the sport any justice.

LOVEFiLM's top ten sports movies of all time:

1. 'Rocky'
2. 'Cool Runnings'
3. 'Million Dollar Baby'
4. 'Jerry Maguire'
5. 'Raging Bull'
6. 'Field of Dreams'
7. 'White Men Can't Jump'
8. 'Chariots of Fire'
9. 'Escape to Victory'
10. 'Caddyshack'
