It's a gripping story....Smith -- flawless in accent and commitment to Omalu's worthy cause -- grips you from first to last.

Rating: 4/5 -- It boasts a fantastic turn from TV veteran Robin Weigert and is visually reminiscent of Todd Haynes's Safe (it's beautiful to look at). Full Review

[Smith] puts his star wattage to clever use here, buttoning down but never attempting to hide his natural magnetism as a real-life character who’s a force of nature in his own way.

Rating: 2/5 -- Stacie Passon's drama is like Luis Buñuel's Belle de Jour without much of the humour or surrealism. Full Review

Abby's pursuit would appear wildly implausible, but Weigert makes it seem perfectly natural, conveying Abby's restless longings and wry curiosity, the sense that she is exploring her identity as much as fulfilling her desires Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Much of the narrative may not ring true, but Weigert's performance is warm and engaging, lending not just heart, but much needed credibility. Full Review
Observer (UK)

A very subtle, sophisticated take on modern relationships driven, naturally, by [Robin] Weigert's nuanced, hard edged performance. Full Review

Product Description:

Filmmaker Peter Landesman (PARKLAND) wrote and directed this sports-themed drama based on Jeanne Marie Laskas' GQ article "Game Brain," about the potentially horrific cost of playing football. Pittsburgh-based neuropathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu (Will Smith) discovers a degenerative brain disease now known as CTE in the autopsies of several deceased pro-football players, but after presenting his research, he finds himself under fire from the NFL. Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Luke Wilson, Alec Baldwin, Bitsie Tulloch, and Albert Brooks co-star.
