Anything with Oliver Stone involved is gold.

Rating: 8/10 (4 February 2005)

Alexander, JFK, Platoon, Born on the fourth of july, Natural Born Killers, and this, Stone has proved, on many occasions, that he is one of the best directors ever, one of the top 3, this is no exception. I've never seen a movie from Stone that id didn't enjoy in some way or another, or in everyway. This is easily the best sports movie, up there with Rudy. The performances are great, Stone always gets a great performance no matter who the actor or actress. Its funny, dramatic, the football scenes are nice and brutal (the eye thing, wow), and very entertaining. I could go on, about how great Stone is, and how great all his movies are, but I've said it before, and if you haven't seen all of Stones movies yet you need to, otherwise you'll still think Kurosawa is the best, try out Spielberg, Scott, Stone, and Scorsese (although somewhat overrated, still great, one of the best), hey all S's, yes the best directors have S's in their names, not Kubrick (he's made all of 2 or 3 good movies in his career, thats not a good record). See this movie and anything else from Stone, even Alexander (best film of 2004, of course), ill give this one a 8 out of a 10.
