Description:

This tribute to the best players in NFL history is intelligently organized, and its use of brilliant game footage shot by NFL Films, as well as even older archival sources, makes it a very enjoyable viewing experience. Organized in thematic chapters with such titles as "Pioneers," "Intimidators," and "Big Gamers," each feature provides a look at the players who exemplified crucial skills of the game. The "Resumé Play" feature showcases particular plays for which someone will always be remembered, and participants in these historic plays appear to offer their memories of the event. Comments by great players of the past punctuate the production, such as legendary tight end John Mackey's summing up his philosophy by noting, "I'd catch the ball and just be ready to hurt someone." As we've come to expect from NFL Films, The Greatest strikes an appropriate tone, mixing laudatory commentary with just the right amount of irony and humor. --Robert J. McNamara
