Sinopsis(1)
Este thriller dramático, basado en hechos reales, se centra en desentrañar el brillante descubrimiento realizado por el doctor Bennet Omalu y las consecuencias del mismo, que sacudieron los cimientos de la industria deportiva. Este especialista en neuropatología forense fue el médico que destapó el primer caso de CTE en un futbolista profesional. Omalu se dio cuenta de que la Encefalopatía Traumática Crónica era la única respuesta posible a los síntomas que mostraban estos deportistas cuya conmoción cerebral provenía de los golpes sistemáticos que habían recibido en la cabeza a lo largo de su carrera profesional. Will Smith da vida a este profesional que decidió seguir sus instintos y no dejarse intimidar por la poderosa Liga Nacional de Fútbol cuyos intereses chocaban con esa verdad recién descubierta que Omalu luchaba por hacer pública. La enfermedad sólo suponía un bache en el camino de un negocio millonario que no parecía considerar la salud de sus jugadores como una prioridad. (Sony Pictures Esp.)

After three years, I finally lived to see a Will Smithʼs role that makes sense and, at the same time, is very interesting. The neurotic Bennet Omalu actually had a very interesting life in the United States, and the fact that producer Ridley Scott entrusted his money to the young and promising director Peter Landesman also says something. What can I say, I was very curious. And that was despite the fact that American football isn’t my favorite sport. In the end, I was surprised that the movie wasn’t so much about the sport but rather about one treacherous disease caused by the said sport. Really, hats off for the fact that the creators didn’t have a problem with smearing the name of the whole NFL, and on top of that also that of the FBI. It’s not common for the viewer to see this in an American movie. It really isn’t.

American football a little differently? Why not, especially when Will Smith is so good at playing an antisocial and cutely African babbling doctor who wants to take on the empire and the money machine with the power of will. No need to address the veracity of the data and the figures, the message is clear, likeable and, even if not as dramatic in the end (or in the real world), certainly thought-provoking. The whole thing is presented for the viewer in a clear, concise manner and without unnecessary mind-numbing technicalities. The ending is rather reprehensible, but the dramatic line is solid. More or less a film about the lead actor on which it stands and falls, but it succeeds admirably.

Will Smith once again proves that he can be a great actor and doesn't have to only play in mainstream blockbusters. This film doesn't have a proper ending, it kind of gets lost, and the main point is then stated in the final credits, but it is still a very well-made insight into how capitalism actually works. Yes, the few dead bodies don't matter because we support charity and help others. In the end, which idiot would allow themselves to be beaten with a stick like this?
