A good movie

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was starring Al Pacino and since it was available on HBO Max, I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, I have to admit that I actually never heard of Joe Paterno before watching this movie and the scandal that ended up his stellar career.

A good movie

“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was starring Al Pacino and since it was available on HBO Max, I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, I have to admit that I actually never heard of Joe Paterno before watching this movie and the scandal that ended up his stellar career. In fact, when I read that it was about a sex scandal, I assumed that Paterno was actually the perpetrator but it was obviously not the case after all, as it was another assistant coach who did these horrible things and Paterno was accused at the time of not reporting it properly. Well, even though Paterno was probably one of the best (American) football coaches that ever lived, after watching this movie, you might wonder if the guy was actually any good at anything else thoug” read more

"Levinson will go down as the best “made-for-TV-movie” director. He takes this sad story of greed, power, abuse of power, disgusting acts while in power, and concussion-filled sports and puts it all in a nice little package. Pacino is excellent as Joe Paterno. I also liked Grunberg as his son. I actually ended up liking the title of this movie by the end. It seemed like a lazy one, but his whole family is really involved and it’s a great example of the effects something like this has on "

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- April 2018 (31 movies items)

" HBO Now- 1hr. 47min. First Viewing Paterno is one of the better-made HBO biopics, with strong technical marks and solid acting, but it's just too reserved and opaque to make a huge impact; it comes and goes without much bang. It also starts off with a poor storytelling choice, with the central question being whether Paterno knew of the abuse; he did, and a better question instead of "did he know?" would've been "why did he do nothing". It's a well-made film, with strong acting (though Pacino go"
