It's a really good film, one of Oliver Stone's best. As someone who has watched a good number of NFL games, it's interesting to see (at the time) current and former players like Jim Brown, Lawrence Taylor, Terrell Owens, Johnny Unitas, Warren Moon in both main and cameo roles. Al Pacino gives a powerful performance highlighted by his powerful locker room speech in the final game.
