The NFL cover

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2016)

This movie did a great job telling the story of a deadly disease that numerous NFL players fell victim to. It is shocking that this is based on a true story, and that it happened prior to 2011.
Dr.Bennet Omalu, played by Will Smith, was the one who made the discovery and found the scientific proof that supported his research that football was the cause of deaths of many of the league's players. The NFL tried to shut him up, but Dr. Omalu would not stop because of the severity of his findings. Dr. Omalu's intention was to bring awareness so that safeguards could be implemented to prevent the diseases caused from suffering numerous blows to the head.
Will Smith's performance was good, but it could have been better. The thing that he seemed to struggle with was the Nigerian accent he had to speak in. There were moments were he sold the accent, but then there were moments where it was not convincing. Considering how dynamic of an actor Will Smith is, he could have done better.
