25 Football Films to Love (Even if You Don't Love Football)24 of 25
Little Giants (1994)
NFL stars trying to act, improbable game-winning trick plays, Rick Moranis ... this one's got it all. Little Giants tackles all the pee-wee pigskin tropes with aplomb, and while it's essentially The Mighty Ducks on dry land, it scores points for some inspired scenes — like the aforementioned cameos by Hall of Famers John Madden and Bruce Smith — and the equally inspired script. Case in point: the best player is a girl.
