Any Given Sunday

By admin2 | September 25, 2008

Directed by Oliver Stone, Any Given Sunday is the story of an aging football coach played by Al Pacino, who finds himself struggling with his personal and professional life while trying to hold his team together. A star quarterback has been knocked out of the game and a naive football player replaces him only to become exposed to the world of sports and become a danger to himself and to his players. Meanwhile, the coach finds himself constantly at battle with the team owner’s money and power hungry daughter (Cameron Diaz) who is intent on moving the team out. One thing I did really like about “Any Given Sunday” is how the action during the games is very realistic, gritty, and fast. However at times it really was trying too hard.
