Great insight into the life of a scientist researching on a controversial subject

Rating: 10/10 (13 January 2016)

Captivating adaptation of a true story! This movie is a great insight on some of the struggles of a scientist, when it comes to publishing new knowledge that goes against a big institution/business.
In this outstanding performance, Will Smith plays Dr Bennet Omalu, the neuropathologist who discovers CTE, a trauma that appears to be a long-term consequence of playing football.
As a future scientist, I really enjoyed seeing some of the real life struggles a scientist can face. Telling the truth is no easy task when a big business is at stake!
A lot of pressure is put upon Dr Omalu's shoulders, but with all his strength and determination, he does what he believes is best: Tell the truth!
I strongly recommend this movie for people interested in science, and more specifically in the scientist's life, as I believe the main focus of this movie is the scientist's life and not the NFL.
