I don't even like football.

Rating: 8/10 (27 December 1999)

What a compelling film. Stone's best work since The Hand, largely because he doesn't have any annoying, muddleheaded, left-wing conspiracy theories to throw at us here. Excellent direction, a fine ensemble cast (this could be Jamie Foxx's breakout role in the same way The Truman Show was Jim Carrey's), some fun cameos, and a bang-up soundtrack make this a good film; the choreography of the football shots puts it on the verge of greatness. Highly recommended.
