And my girlfriend wonders why we never go to the movies.

Supposedly one of the best films of the year... it was okay. Worth a rental, but not worth shelling out $20 plus feed. I teared up a couple of times during the flashbacks to Ray's childhood; don't recall laughing at all or caring much about any of the characters. The music was good, but I'd probably rather just listen to an album of Ray's than watch the movie.

C+

I doubt if Id drop twenty on any movie,but it was a good movie.B+

Jamie Fox is the reason to see the movie.He is spot on Ray Charles.Dude acted his ass off and deservidly won best actor oscar and Im sure some other stupid awards that I never pay attention to.

Picking up the cricket. One of the best movie scenes in a decade or more.
