Any Given Sunday (1999)
Oliver Stone injects that special Oliver Stone energy into this story of Willie Beamen (Jamie Foxx), a pro quarterback who rises from mediocrity to primetime, and his ability (or inability) to deal with instant success at the highest level of his profession.
But it’s Al Pacino quickly gets possession of the movie — this is one of roles movies where he does his screaming thing a lot, but it’s justified and totally works. Cameron Diaz is also great as the new owner of the Miami Sharks.
