Terrific acting dominates this riveting, factually based, entertaining, inspirational, gut-wrenching, 99-minute, 2018 film that chronicles the valiant, heartbreaking struggles of tenacious, 27-year-old African-American Brian Banks (Aldis Hodge), who was once a high school football star with dreams of an NFL career and living with his supportive mother (Sherri Shepherd) in Long Beach, Calif., as he tries to convince skeptical, overworked California Innocence Project lawyer Justin Brooks (Greg Kinnear) and law students (Tiffany Dupont, et al.) to take his case to get it overturned after he was unjustly accused of raping a vindictive classmate (Xosha Roguemore) in 2002 when he was 16 years old resulting in traumatic prison time and having to register as a sex offender the rest of his life.
