loved this movie

Rating: 8/10 (5 July 2004)

I loved this movie. Not being a fan of American Football (dont even know the rules) I wasn't sure what to expect, however with the cast involved I thought I'd give it a go. Oliver Stone has done a great job here and some of the shooting was absolutely brilliant. Pacino gives a very good performance as the Old Schol Head Coach, and this was pleasing to see as I had tired of his last few films and thought he was going the way of De Niro. Everything from the soundtrack to the fast moving plot made sure I wasn't searching for the 'how long has this got to go' DVD menu button. The ending was very upbeat as well, and all in all a very good nights entertainment was had.
