At the 50-yard line of this gridiron cosmos is Al Pacino as Tony D Amato, the embattled Sharks coach facing a full-on blitz of team strife plus a new, marketing-savvy Sharks owner (Cameron Diaz) who s sure Tony is way too Old School. An injured quarterback (Dennis Quaid), a flashy, bull-headed QB (Jamie Foxx), a slithery team doctor (James Woods) and a running back with an incentive-laden contract (LL Cool J) also provide some of the stories that zigzag like diagrams in a playbook. And throughout, there s the awesome spectacle of motion, sound and action orchestrated into Oliver Stone s most electrifying film in years. A dazzling spectacle (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone).
