Slap Shot (1977)

Slap Shot, starring Paul Newman, is well known for its realistic portrayal of hockey, its memorable cast, and that classic small-town to the big-dreams plot. The 1977 movie is a beloved sports movie of the past.

While it’s still a favorite for many hockey and comedy fans, the over-the-top rowdy behavior, excessive violence, and general nature of the insults would make it tough to pass in the current era.
