Critics Reviews

Phil Gallo Variety Monday Night Mayhem [is] a reasonably strong telling of Cosell's rise as an American icon and "MNF" as an entertainment paragon. Nov 7, 2018 Full Review John Leonard New York Magazine/Vulture Patti LuPone doesn't have enough to do as Cosell's wife, Emmy. On the other hand, we see more than enough to make us cringe at everybody else, especially Chad L. Coleman's O. J. Simpson. Feb 2, 2018 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 4/5 Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Oct 18, 2005 Full Review Film Threat Rated: 4/5 Dec 8, 2002 Full Review Caffeinated Clint Moviehole Now here's a film that reads fairly ho-hum, but once it's final credits have rolled you'll agree you've just watched one of the more stimulating and interesting telemovies of recent times Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 17, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member John tuturro was excellent in this look at the beginning of the monday night program. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Very interesting and sad story about a show that changed television forever. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Just quality work all-round. If it wasn't for the complete lack of foul language, one wouldn't be able to recognize this as a made-for-TV movie. This is just good cinematic story-telling.
