#1 Football Movie- Remember The Titans

Remember The Titans (2000)

Starring: Denzel Washington, Will Patton, Wood Harris

Great characters, great storyline, great football...Remember the Titans has it all and more. Not only are both Denzel's Herman Boone and Patton's Bill Yoast fantastic high school football coaches but two great characters that compliment each other nicely.

There is a great cast of characters on the team; from Frankie Stechino to Dr. Turk, the Notebook guy to Motar, TC Williams Titans had an awesome team of dudes. Heroes star Hayden Panettiere as Coach Yoast's young daughter is hillarious.

Last but definitely not least is the soundtrack. As with most movies set in the late 60s/early 70s, Remember the Titans is filled with great tune after great tune, and it really helps give it the number one spot on this list.

Top Basketball Movies (16 & 15)

16. Eddie (1996)
Starring: Whoopi Goldberg, Frank Langella, Dennis Farina

Edwina 'Eddie' Franklin is a Knicks fan and after she gets called down to the court to participate in the half-time show, the crowd falls in love with her. When the coach is fired, the owner turns to Eddie to turn things around in New York. Now I'm not a big Whoopie fan, and I don't even enjoy her that much in this movie, but it is the surrounding cast that gets Eddie on the list. Langella, Farina and Richard Jenkins are all great, but it is the performances by NBA stars Rick Fox, Mark Jackson, John Sally and Malik Sealy (blow a kiss to the sky in remembrance) that put it over the top.

15. He Got Game (1998)
Starring: Denzel Washington, Ray Allen, Rosario Dawson

Two in a row with Rick Fox. Ray Allen plays Jesus Shuttlesworth, the best high school basketball player in the country. He Got Game tells the story of Jesus being recruited by every school in the country and the troubles he faces while trying to get off the streets. His dad gets out of jail temporarily so that he can convince Jesus to go to a certain school. Speaking of Mr. Shuttlesworth, how terrible was Denzel's jumper?
