Concussion - 2015 - 7/10

Pittsburgh coroner realizes connection between gridiron head injuries and cognitive impairment.
Whereas the average soul will ponder ten seconds, “Bang your skull, brain damage - duh,"
the NFL (National Football League), is not exactly thrilled.
They react much as Big Tobacco did when confronted with evidence equating smoking with cancer.
Will Smith disappears into a multilayered role of embattled, idealistic soul, dealing with
frightening, rabid football fans. “What!! You wanna take away our football!!”
Trifle overlong, yet never dull or boring. Not preachy, either.
A tone of elegy shrouds most of the film, nevertheless.
