10 Movies You Won't Believe Are Turning 20 In 2025

10. Coach Carter

There has been something of a small influx of basketball movies in recent years, with Adam Sandler's Hustle showing a grizzled old scout trying to get a young kid in the game, and Air depicting the race for Nike to sign Michael Jordan. However, it will take a lot to top Coach Carter.

Samuel L. Jackson's titular high school coach took the job at Richmond High School, which wasn't exactly the kind of job you'd envy. But, in the face of undeniable odds, a school occupied by failing students in an incredibly violent neighbourhood, he turned them into a winning team in what is a wonderfully feel good story.

However, the basketball is the least important thing about this basketball movie. It was how Coach Carter was turning these boys into men academically and off the court that was the true story. 

You can watch it back now and though there are some things that would absolutely give it away as being 20 years old, Samuel L. Jackson isn't one of them, as he looks exactly the same as he does today. The same can't be said about Channing Tatum, who looks incredibly young making his big screen debut at 25 years old.
