I liked the last boy scout and necessary roughness the most.

I really like all those movies, North Dallas Forty is a good one.

Wasn't asking, I love football, I've never seen a bad football movie.

That said, some movies are about football and some just have football in them.

Rudy wasn't a bad movie but like Radio it was a movie that had football as a setting with the story being about something else. So while IMDB and some critics classify those as football movies, I've seen both and neither told a story about the game of or playing football.

+1. Wildcats and The Best of Times (Robin and Kurt).

I loved Any given sunday which was probably as close to real as it gets and then the Rudy movie was good.
