It's a great movie. I'd like my son to watch, but he's almost 9 and there is too much swearing in it unfortunately.
shareBut just the right amount of violence!
This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

Mighty Ducks do not belong in a movie, much less in an arena (sorry Suck fans).
If you notice that Miracle is not on my list, there's a reason. It has several fatal flaws. Basically it's just a bad movie about an epic event, which is far from the greatest "miracle" on ice. Read up about the Summit Series with Canada vs. the commies. THAT was a MIRACLE, and a much more entertaining, legendary story. There are several amazing documentaries and movies that include real footage and describe the whole cold-war feeling a lot better. Not to mention that as far as I know, it was never said that the US had to go on and play FInland. It a good movie, I saw it once, and on my shelf it site. Goon, Youngblood, and especially Slapshot have been watched over and over and over again.
I should add that Rob Zombie is doing a flick about the Broad Street Bullies, and Kevin Smith's movie might be a classic too.
Youngblood is great, but FAR from the best. Only a Blues fan could think that. ZING!

No disrespect, but Team Canada was made up of NHL players. Among the best playing at the time, quite a few ended up in the Hall of Fame. Pretty much equals to the Soviets. Whereas the '80 American Olympic team was a bunch of college players, average age about 23, few distinguished themselves in the NHL, most where there and gone.

"4.Mighty Ducks Trilogy (and people wonder why americans dont like hockey)"
I dont get it. haha please explain! I'm an American and I am a girl and HOCKEY is one of my favvvv sports!!! haha I love the Canes! I love Eric Staal (got his jersey!!!plus hes pretty cute! haha) Mike Commodore, Cam Ward, Ray Whitney, Erik Cole(poor guy his neck is gettin better though! hes finally starting to skate and pass a puck around) Frank Kaberle, Andrew Ladd and many more...
I also like Gary Roberts (his daughter used to go to my school and we were good friends!), Jeff O'neill, Sami Kapenan, Scott NIEDERMYER (awesome name haha), Ron Francis (his kids go to my school and he is our Varsity Softball Asst Coach, he wants to start and coach a hockey team at my school too) and Arturs Irbe (IRBE SAYS NO!) haha so obviously Im a huge hockey fan!!!
I dont know why Americans dont like hockey. Its probably the roughest sport played professionally, way more places and ways to get injured. Cute boys (I aint gunna lie) I dont know, its way more fun to go to a game than it is to watch it on TV and once you get addicted, you LOVE IT!!! ahaha but I am going right now to watch the CANES woop the Sabres butts!!!
but please to explain that comment! i just dont get why the Mighty Ducks would be the reason.
GO CANESSSS!!!!!!

Ahhhh, puck bunnies.....
This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.
LOL!!! First thing I thought of was Puck Bunny.
Seriously, I'm sick of the myth that Americans don't like hockey. We just have more to watch, but we have endless passionate players and fans. It's Canada's sport for sure, but guess where they want to play... booyah.
Well, where they will play whenever Bettman is impeached and we get our season back.

How the heck can you guys say Mystery Alaska?
It was too long of a movie with only probably 15 minutes worth of hockey in it. It was barely a hockey movie and more of a Russel Crowe's life drama.
I fail to see how Miracle makes any list. THe Summit Series was better, and the movie itself is a bad representation that shows little of the cold-war tension or the actual history and the game.
And the Ducks? This reeks of fail.
