Ray

RAY (2004) - Nov. 2, 2004
Jamie Foxx is electrifying in this overlong movie about Ray Charles' life. Foxx proves once and for all that he is indeed an excellent actor, but the movie occasionally feels like an endurance test. The film is at least an hour too long; it starts to feel really repetitive towards the end, like we're seeing the same scenes over and over again. There were a lot of songs, but they were all actually really good, and welcome relief from the movie itself which was really starting to wear on me towards the end. **1/2
