The 1976 Sylvester Stallone starring movie about underdog boxer Rocky Balboa topped the Lovefilm poll ahead of the 1993 comedy about the Jamaican Olympic bobsleigh team and Hilary Swank’s Oscar-winning turn in Million Dollar Baby.
“With the 2012 London Olympics on their way… sport is a hot topic — from living room to locker room,” the Daily Express quoted Lovefilm editor Helen Cowley as saying.
“Whether it is football favourites, bobsleighing blunders or boxing Balboas we love to watch sporting heroes cross the finishing line in style,” she added.
Other movies, which rounded up in the top five are Raging Bull and The Wrestler, while in the top 10 included The Blind Side, The Damned United and The Fighter.—Daily Express.
