Slap Shot (1977)
Greatest Sports Movie Ever
This movie is the greatest sports movie of all time. Great acting, great writing, and a great soundtrack. Nancy Dowd started out writing this movie as a documentary about minor league hockey because her brother, Ned Dowd, was a minor league player. Ned ended up playing the character Ogie Oglethorpe in the movie. Most of the elements of the movie come from real life hockey stories that Nancy heard about from her research or from some of the real life hockey players, that were in the movie, provided to her. After almost 50 years this movie still stands out and it is a must watch for all hockey players around the world. Ask any current pro player about the movie and they will be able to quote lines from this movie. Outstanding from beginning to end!

Laugh Out Loud!
If you are easily offended, totally woke, or pathetically politically correct you won't like this movie. However, if you find life funny and you like to laugh you will laugh out loud during this movie. I have watched it three times now and it gets funnier everytime I watch it. Sure, it's rude and crude but I laughed so hard I cried more than once. I suggest watching it more than once because you'll pick up on some of the more subtle lines when you watch it again and again.
