Review of Get On Up (2014) by Mick Lasalle for San Francisco Chronicle — 30 Jul 2014
This is all good movie material, so far as it goes ... but Get on Up can't go any further. Sometimes damaged people stay damaged, and sometimes popular artists make their contribution and then stay in one place forever.
It's a big letdown for everybody, but in a biopic, it's poison.
