Review of Get On Up (2014) by David N — 21 Mar 2015
The acting in this film is superb! It's amazing how well Chadwick Boseman embodies James Brown. Also the plot does a great job showing some of the key events that shaped James Brown's personality.
I only wish there would have been a couple less flashbacks and perhaps more reflection in "real time" from the adult James Brown... that would have helped the pacing of the film. Overall, this is a great film if you want to study what it takes to be great or simply want to know more about James Brown.
