The Bad News Bears poster 01

Movie / 1976 / Comedy / Family

The Bad News Bears

Why this pick

Like Major League, it turns a ramshackle, underestimated team into a sharp, profane-feeling underdog comedy, with sporting setbacks and bruised egos fueling the laughs rather than sentimentality.

Slap Shot poster 02

Movie / 1977 / Comedy / Drama

Slap Shot

Why this pick

Its foul-mouthed minor-league misfits, locker-room camaraderie, and scrappy winning-or-losing stakes share Major League’s rowdy team chemistry and irreverent sports-comedy energy.

Tin Cup poster 03

Movie / 1996 / Comedy

Tin Cup

Why this pick

A gifted but self-sabotaging athlete gets a warm, funny redemption arc in this loose, character-driven sports comedy with the same affection for flawed competitors as Major League.

The Replacements poster 04

Movie / 2000 / Comedy / Sport

The Replacements

Why this pick

This is another joyful collection-of-misfits sports comedy: an unlikely squad finds rhythm together while the humor comes from personalities, rivalries, and a crowd-pleasing underdog run.

Mystery, Alaska poster 05

Movie / 1999 / Comedy / Drama

Mystery, Alaska

Why this pick

Its small-town hockey team carries a similar blend of blue-collar banter, team loyalty, and long-shot competition, though with a gentler, more communal warmth than Major League.

01 / THE STORY

A little about the film.

When Rachel Phelps inherits the Cleveland Indians from her deceased husband, she's determined to move the team to a warmer climate, but only a losing season will make that possible, which should be easy given the misfits she's hired. Rachel is sure her dream will come true, but she underestimates their will to succeed.
