This was a movie about Miles Davis, but seems to have avoided being a biopic. It was more like watching Don Cheadle brilliantly portray someone who has largely been a famous but mysterious musical legend.

Miles Ahead is a snapshot of a glance of the music icon's life. The good news is that you want to learn more about Miles after watching this movie, but the bad news is you almost need to do it. You don't get much more than what we already know.

He was as talented as he was brilliant and he was brilliantly flawed. He walked that fine line between genius and insanity and may have crossed back and forth a few times. He loved a woman (and then some more of them).
