Almost three hours of this jitter deteriorates from bravura filmmaking to annoying mannerism, and Any Given Sunday ends up less than the sum of its many, often interesting parts. Full Review |

Hit and miss, certainly, but intense stuff. Full Review |

You'd have to be a very undiscriminating football die-hard to get anything out of it. Full Review |

Any Given Sunday doesn't disappoint from an acting standpoint; with a cast like this it could hardly miss. Full Review |

A solidly-acted action-drama hybrid whose cartoonish asides largely undermine the greater subtext. Full Review |

|
2/5 |
Ultimately, Any Given Sunday will disappoint football fans and won't win any new converts to the game, and worse, is just a painful film to watch Full Review |

The cast does an impressive job. Full Review |
