Good, long and rushed at the end.

Rating: 8/10 (5 December 2004)

This a good movie. I think they a have a great chance at the Oscars. Although, I think they may win more trophy at the Golden Globes.
I was not a big fan of Jamie Foxx, but he surprised me in Collateral, and even more in Ray. He's not a great actor, yet, but he could become one.
The story is good. We see a good evolution of Ray Charles music. There is a slow spot in the middle of the movie, and I felt like they rushed the end of the movie. It looks like they found out they were going for a 3 hours movie and suddenly cut it. They are finishing the movie with text about the last part of his life. I think they should have, cut a good part of all the young Ray Chales parts. It was important, but only once. We know what happened, so there's no need to keep telling us.
So I think you should see this movie, we'll be hearing about it in the Oscar season.
