Review of Concussion (2015)

By Will Leitch (411) for The New Republic (897) on 23 Dec 2015

Concussion isn't angry enough for a polemic, and it isn't interesting enough to be an uplifting Hollywood message movie, which means it's just…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 23 Dec 2015

There's a smarter, sharper film trapped inside what becomes a movie-of-the-week, and not even Smith's commitment to emotional firepower can…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Ken Hanke (2,234) for Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) (2,247) on 23 Dec 2015

Mostly pretty effective agitprop drama, but with an unfortunate tendency toward speech-making and a rushed -- and overly melodramatic -- conclusion…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Bryan Bishop (118) for The Verge (432) on 23 Dec 2015

Concussion may start off as a stirring conspiracy thriller with the best performance from Will Smith in years, but it's hard to care when it's…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Josh Kupecki (255) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 23 Dec 2015

If Concussion had focused on Omalu’s tireless efforts to expose CTE to the world, it would have been a powerful film…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Kirk Baird (274) for Toledo Blade (302) on 23 Dec 2015

With the mounting evidence and increasing concern of the potential hazards of playing football, the National Football League has much to be…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Mick Lasalle (3,303) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 23 Dec 2015

Writer-director Peter Landesman has a fascinating and appalling story to tell here, and that cuts through the layers of corniness…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By David Blaustein (150) for ABC News Radio (149) on 23 Dec 2015

If you're being honest with yourself, you'll feel Concussion, and it will and should be painful…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By David Berry (137) for National Post (1,405) on 23 Dec 2015

Everything here is roughly that plodding, managing to make what actually should be a life-and-death issue into something with all the nuance…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Daniel Brown (1) for San Jose Mercury News (757) on 23 Dec 2015

The film captures the essence of how an unlikely scientist forced a monumental shift in the NFL culture. Concussion gains just enough ground to score…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Dann Gire (642) for Chicago Daily Herald (649) on 23 Dec 2015

Smith's polished, selfless performance carries this film, a disappointment as far as heroic underdog dramas go…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 23 Dec 2015

The great strength of Concussion is its star’s performance…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Rick Bentley (466) for Fresno Bee (603) on 23 Dec 2015

Review of Concussion (2015)

By John Serba (472) for MLive.com (475) on 23 Dec 2015

Landesman seems uncertain if he should serve character or procedure, and ultimately does justice to neither…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Glenn Kenny (1,728) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 23 Dec 2015

Will Smith’s performance as Omalu is lovely: small-scaled, precise, imbued with righteousness but not tritely pious…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 23 Dec 2015

Solemn, straight-forward, plodding-paced procedural that's surprisingly ineffective, given the topic and Will Smith's superb, understated portrayal…

Review of Concussion (2015)

By Stephen Whitty (1,794) for Newark Star-Ledger (1,745) on 23 Dec 2015

Despite the rumors, the gossip, the stolen emails describing NFL involvement in this film, the story - and the stinging end titles - do not…
