Your Favorite Golf Movie

[jowlar]

I enjoy most any golf movie but the best in my opinion is Tin Cup . I hear a line from this movie almost every time I play golf. Nice par Dave, el hosel, my swing feels like an unfolding lawn chair, I missed a 4 footer on 18 for an 83, and shootin' chili peppers up Lee Janzen's ass is standard for shank at my club. It is one of those movie I will watch everytime I see it on and know every line. My wife absolutely hates it.

I don't see how there can be any response to this thread other than "Caddyshack".

This thread s/b called best movie other than Caddyshack.

Other than Caddyshack, Happy Gilmore for the Bob Barker fight alone. Also, since that movie came out I can not stand over a downhill put without thinking "Tap Tap Tappy."

oh yeah, ben stiller's cameo, offering Happy's mom "a nice warm glass of SHUT THE HELL UP!"

I just saw The Greatest Game Ever Played last night and I must say, while a little slow at times, it was terrifically done. Love some of the cool "effect" shots thet did. That HD TV really makes it pop.

I agree, "Greatest Game Ever Played" is my favorite. Any thing with Golf in it is worth watching though..

I just bought "The greatest Game Ever Played". Great movie. I am looking for "Dead Solid Perfect" with Randy Quaid, have only found it VHS. Any ideas about finding it in DVD?

I can't believe no one has mentioned " Who's your Caddy ". I haven't seen it yet , but according to IMDB it has Lil' Wayne playing himself. I love movies that feature rap stars that I've never heard of.

There was a big dude farting in the preview. I'm sure there is more of that kind of comedy in the rest of the movie.

It's got Jeffery Jones. He's done nothing that is so morally objectionable that it would be hard to watch him for 90+ minutes.

Seriously, can anyone come up with a reason (besides being the lowest rated all time movie on IMDB) that we can't go ahead and call this one the winner?

you can't go wrong with Happy Gilmore

[RussianCarl]

My taste in golf movies has seriously shifted between youth and adult. Ten years ago I would have told you the following:

1) Happy Gilmore
2) Caddyshack
3) Tin Cup

And now it is exactly reversed. Tin cup is awesome, although I have a serious dislike Renee Russo. At least Kevin could play golf pretty well.

Caddy shack and tin cup tied

[PaperHogan]

1. Caddyshack
2. Dead Solid Perfect
3. Follow the Sun

Everything else just happens to have the word "golf" somewhere in the movie.

caddyshack and happy gilmore are the two best, period.

My vote is for "Pat and Mike." The movie is about an athlete, Katherine Hepburn and an agent, Spencer Tracy, and how they fall in love; boy meets girl, etc. But in the story, Hepburn's character plays a golf match, and guess what? There's no double! She's a player and what a player! In the movie she plays against the likes of the finest pro female golfers of her day. And there's no movie magic here. We get to see everybody's real swing. And, the acting's pretty good, too. Hard to beat Spencer and Hepburn.

Without a doubt it is Caddyshack for me! I have never played a round without someone, somewhere referencing this movie in someway. Beyond popular.
