Description

Will Smith stars in Concussion, a dramatic thriller based on the incredible true David vs. Goliath story of American immigrant Dr. Bennet Omalu, the brilliant forensic neuropathologist who made the first discovery of CTE, a football-related brain trauma, in a pro player and fought for the truth to be known. Omalu’s emotional quest puts him at dangerous odds with one of the most powerful – and beloved – institutions in the world.

    Never a dull pause in the film. Will Smith played his part well with conviction. As is usual the elite believe they are beyond the law. It's just not true that the weak will inherit the earth. Truth is but an illusion!
  • Yes.

    After having many sporting concussions and feeling a different, lesser person for 2 years because of them, this film nails emotion and anger behind it. Based on a true story too? What more do you want?! Yes!

    Not an interesting film. The film industry has now got the viewing public to a place where it is desensatised to terror, now wants to instill a new fear on the public. Yawn...

    I heard at the time of release that this was average and probably a flop for will, i must admit i did not go to see. So here is its release and i just rented (wish id bought) firstly the story is intriguing nfl cover ups and being a rugby fan i was interested here! Wow was i engossed from the first 10 mins, an emotional ride to see these big stars absolutely out of their minds very emotional, but will and his acting should never be doubted ie he should have got an oscar! i extremely recommend for those who love true life drama with some errors but largely true watch and comment your self...thank you Mr Smith a good job done! Now where is his film Ali!!!!!!!!! not even SD here i want HD?????????????????????
  • Exceptional movie!!
