"How can you not be romantic about baseball?" Well, this film tries its absolute best to do just that. More concerned with Excel sheets than the game this is a good movie, but a little clinical.

Another classic Michael J. Fox from 1985, this time he's a werewolf who plays basketball (really well). Stiles is one of my favourite supporting character we've seen so far, and the van surfing is excellent. Great soundtrack too!

I enjoyed this way more than I expected. It's impossible not to love Buddy, and everyone else does a good job of rightfully letting him steal the show. Better free-throw percentage than Shaq.

This dog can actually play basketball. A fun kids movie that made me laugh a lot and if you watch it with a kid you will really get a kick out of it.

I like this a lot. The era is defined in great detail not just in the visuals but in the attitudes it highlights as well. That said, the documentary of the same name is better.

Another Ron Shelton sports movie classic, this time with the mighty Costner in the lead. The best (only) golf movie I've ever seen.

A fun movie in which Costner shows off yet more of his sporting talents. Love the message in the final act, always find it refreshing…

There is so much more to this movie than initially meets the eye. Brilliantly written and brilliantly dissected by James on our show, so go listen now...after watching this film.

This is great. Great performances of characters that are written with genuine depth. That said it didn't grab me as an obvious classic like it has for many others.

A very different movie from the original despite the fact it's the same two guys getting in the ring at the end. Just as enthralling, an excellent sequel.
