Thumbs down Bad gymnastics movies!!!!

Litllekateskate had a post recently on searching out good DVDs for DD. It brought me full circle back to the worst movies about gymnastics. I know there are not many to choose from but (Sorry Kurt Thomas) Gymkata gets my top billing! Any others out there???

Hahaha, oh man. I love gymkata. Just because it's such an epic failure of a movie. It sucks so bad it's hilarious.

There are quite a few gymnastics movies, but unfortunately so many of them center around eating disorders. Here are a few that I know and I'm not sure which one would be the worst of the bunch:

American Anthem (Mitch Gaylord & Janet Jones)
Perfect Body (Amy Jo Johnson-Pink Power Ranger)
Little Girls in Pretty Boxes (Courtney Peldon)
Stick It!
The Nadia Movie

The nadia movie probably has to be the worst cause the acting was horrible!!!

Not really movies but the episode of Lizzie McGuire where she did rhythmics and Lazytown. God I hate that progamme.

I loved the Nadia movie!!! And Stick It.

There isn't such thing as a bad gymnastics movie.Nadia might be one though. hahaStick it is classic though. I can recite the whole movie along with it.
