I have a buddy whose hangup with it is Jamie Foxx as a QB. The movie is not based in reality. What Stone film is? Maybe I am crazy (no maybe about it actually) but I thought Pacino's speech at the end was pretty good. I thought Jamie Foxx's character was funny. I thought LT was convincing (go figure.) It was good junk. Let's put it that way. That's the only Stone film I can think of that I liked at all. I like Dennis Quaid, too.
I do remember Oliver Stone's "The Hand" movie was pretty funny when I was a kid. Unfortunately, I think it was supposed to be scary.
