"Ray" an extraordinary biopic

Rating: 9/10 (28 January 2005)

I have recently been to see the critically acclaimed film "Ray". My Father was and still is a huge fan of Ray Charles' work and i decided that it would be a nice treat for him and I to go and see this movie together. I didn't expect to "love" this movie as i was never one to dig into my Dad's collection of music! I was pleasantly surprised with "Ray", its chillingly accurate portrayal of Ray Charles (Jamie Foxx) is extraordinary, he looks, acts, sounds and has the same energy Ray did. I "loved" this movie, and it could be one of my favourites of 2005 along with "sideways", "Aviator" and "Vera Drake".
