Miracle (2004)

I freaking love this movie.  yeah it's kinda cheesy and you know how it's gonna end, but man Mike Rich can write a sports movie.  and as a hockey fan this is one of only a handful.  Yeah Slapshot is better, and yeah Youngblood is cheesier, and yeah Canada/Russia 72, is a little more fun but this movie is great.  Kurt Russell is great and i think that Patricia Clarkson's fine performance is often overlooked.  It's a shame that Herb Brooks passed away before he could see the finished product i think he would be really happy about it.
