Suffers from Oliver Stone

Rating: 9/10 (27 December 1999)

Several times while watching "Any Given Sunday," I couldn't help but think what a great movie it would have been in the hands of a film maker other than Oliver Stone.
Stone is, by far, the most overblown, self-indulgent director ever. The fact this movie is even decent is a credit to the cast, who all deliver solid performances, and the strength of the football scenes, which are the perfect venue for Stone's over-the-top camera techniques and seizure-inducing editing style.
