Such an epic tale of human folly you'd swear Sophocles wrote it.

RTThe Hollywood ReporterApr 27, 2011

Filmmaker Alex Gibney dissects an infamous sports incident in fascinating and wildly entertaining detail.

The film is accessible -- and funny -- enough to attract a wide aud, sports-minded or not.

It’s such a fascinating approach to view the lens through the 1986 World Series but it makes sense when one considers the fact that Gibney is a Boston Red Sox fan.
