Great movie!!

Rating: Null/10 (4 September 2000)

This movie rocked! I just want to say that Al Pacino is the best actor I've ever seen on film! His performance stretched beyond a mere shouting match between his character Tony and the bitchy Christina Pagnanaci (Cameron Diaz) into a sympathetic, three-dimensional character. Jamie Foxx was terrific as the troubled Miami Sharks quarterback, set to take over for an ailing and aging Dennis Quaid. Foxx really surprised me with his dramatic turn, since I was so used to seeing him in comedy, such as "In Living Color" and "The Jamie Foxx Show". What a great turn in this movie! The other cast members, Diaz, James Woods, Quaid and LL Cool J were excellent! I recommend this movie to anyone, even for those who aren't into football. I'm not a football fan, but I really got into this movie! Oliver Stone has made a convincing study of the highs and lows of professional football and a fascinating parallel to football and war. Kudos to Stone on such a fine film and a great comeback after that U-Turn disaster in 1997. A+
