Spot on "Ray"

Rating: 6/10 (4 February 2007)

I'm giving "Ray" a 6, and I didn't even finish it. Jamie Foxx does the best, bar none, impression of Ray Charles you have ever seen, and will probably ever live to see. For that reason, and that reason alone, you should at least attempt to view this film. Unfortunately, I couldn't last that long to see it to completion.
I found the story uninteresting. Once I saw how amazing Jamie Foxx was as Ray, I couldn't focus on the material that was being presented. It rambled, it drug, in short, it lost me...I might have lasted an hour.
Oscar win for Best Actor, hands down. But, would I recommend it? Hard to say...couldn't ride that horse to the finish line. Maybe you'll fair better.
