Excellent Movie

Rating: Null/10 (29 October 2004)

This movie is the best movie that I have seen all year. Jamie Foxx was so good in his role that he made me forget I was watching an actor. I felt as if I was watching the real Ray Charles playing himself. You are taken through a journey of Ray's life. There were many tears shed. The tears were for all the rough times Ray went through but there were also tears for the times when you felt so proud of all Ray's achievements and accomplishments during his life. The supporting cast was also very good. It was a long movie, according to the clock, but seemed to end too soon. It could have gone on and every minute would have been enjoyed. At the end of the movie the whole audience applauded. It has been many years since I heard that. Both the movie and Jamie's performance are most certainly Oscar-worthy.
