Review of Any Given Sunday (1999) by Zehra P — 22 Jun 2010

I think the movie as a whole was quite good. Oliver Stone still did a great job but this is not one of his best. The almost 3 hours didn't even feel like it, it felt like watching a Football game on Any Given Sunday.

Jamie Foxx did a great job, you loved him at times and hated him at times, and he gave you great reason to do either. And of course Al Pacino was the man as always, playing a coach with heart and blowing you away at the end.

Cameron Diaz was the best wicked witch, just a hard-core display of a woman of the millenium. All in all, anyone who thinks this movie had no plot, wasn't paying attention. All you have to do is see the change in the characters throughout the movie, and what the game meant to each one of them: from the owner, to the coach, to the players, to the doctors, to the families.

There is a lot of meaning in this movie even it is pretty confusing and slow at most times.
