CONCUSSION

In Pittsburgh, accomplished pathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu uncovers the truth about brain damage in football players who suffer repeated concussions in the course of normal play. —IMDB

A brilliant movie and a great story. Will Smith is excellent as Dr Bennett Omalu with a good supporting cast. The story is excellent — compelling and contemporary and told in a straightforward way. It is hard to believe these events occurred so recently. Smith’s character is fascinating and develops well over the course of the film. There is the occasional humour derived naturally from events. Definitely worth checking out at the cinema or home on digital when it is released.
