Was litteraly just about to mention the 30 for 30 features
The ones that stand out for me are:
The two Escobars (Colombian football / drugs)
The band that wouldn't die (about baltimore colts / ravens)

My fave is the best that never was- think I have watched it 3 or 4 times now- what a talent that was ultimately wasted....
Haven’t seen any that are bad though and the Escobar one is a tough but great watch

 

[My Boy Harry]

Slap Shot
Rollerball - a cult classic
