The 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea start on February 9. Movies set at the Winter Olympics are quite rare, but those that do exist pack a major wallop. Which do you love most?

Jen: I think you may have the wrong film titled Take Off on the list. The correct film would be http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1298648/.

My vote: Miracle (2004)

It's a shame that Norwegian Skating Champion, Olympic gold medalist in Skating and actress Sonja Henie never made an Winter Olympic themed film.

urbanemovies,

Thanks. I must have phased out when I read the plot synopsis. I haven't seen the film in a long time.

I considered this one as well, but there aren't any scenes actually AT the Olympics, which is why I didn't include it.
