FilmApe’s review:
This movie took me literally days to get through. I kept starting it, getting bored, and turning it off. Not that I really care that much about football, but Oliver Stone really butchers the sport here. His cynical and over the top take on professional athletes is only matched by his cynical and over the top take on professional team owners and team management. Skip this film and watch HBO's fantastic series Hard Knocks instead.
I really only like two Oliver Stone films. I loved Natural Born Killers and I liked U-Turn quite a bit.
