Rocky, but I hate to call it a sports film since it the greatest movie of all time.

Next to Return of the Jedi.  ;)

Danielson, it's funny, with your name and avatar, I haven't heard you mention The Karate Kid one time.

Rocky is the absolute best Sports movie franchise...

I really enjoyed Any Given Sunday and Varsity Blues though...

Please; even when it came out it was already a formula.

KK was a great movie, but it was no Rocky.

Better than any Rocky in terms of both script & realism. The Rocky fight scenes were always horribly choreographed & unconvincing:

Playmakers was pretty good. I wish they had made a second season, but it was ESPN/NFL politics. >:(
