I love Remember the Titans and We Are Marshall, they are two of my favorite sports movie. But there is one movie that stands above all the rest: Miracle. The 2004 film about the 1980 Olympic hockey team and their defeat over the Soviet Union. This game is often referred to as the “Miracle on Ice” because no one believed the U.S.A. could beat the Soviets.
An amazing team, coached by the legendary Herb Brooks, worked hard for eight months before the Olympics to clinch the gold medal. This historic movie captures one of the greatest moments in sports history and all that lead up to it. This one is for all those who love, hockey, the US, and the 1980 Men's Olympic Hockey Team.
1. You respected those guys so much for all those 'Herbies,' especially after the game in Norway.
3. Al Michaels original commentary for the last 10 seconds of the game was used, including the famous line, "Do you believe in Miracles?" Which, of course, gave everyone chills.
4. "Great moments are born from great opportunity..." This speech will allow you to conquer the impossible.
5. You felt so bad for Ralph Cox, even if he only was playing college hockey for the girls!
6. The opening credits get you so excited and then this comes together...
7. "The name on the front is a hell of a lot more important than the one on the back."
