7/22/2016: A really good movie about a music icon. I'm not a big Foxx fan, but he killed it in this role. It was nice to see an honest biography…

Foxx literally embodies Ray, aside from this the film is sorely, wait for it, over-Ray-ted…

Good story and by the end you'll forget just for a time it's NOT Ray Charles on screen but Jamie Foxx in his best and one of the years best…

Masterfully acted and apparently a pretty accurate portrayal of the great Ray Charles' life story…

Review of Ray (2003)

By Joe H (1,381) on 11 Mar 2014

Anchored by some powerful performances but ultimately a middling and formulaic biopic, the filmmakers behind Ray should have learned a thing…

Review of Ray (2003)

Review of Blacksmith Scene (1893)

By Paul D (6,077) on 03 Apr 2011

Good early short I guess the actors in this were actually assisstants pulling double duty…

Review of Carne (1991)

By Zhanyi J (167) on 10 Jul 2011

Hard to watch, but not for disturbing sense. For me, it's the incoherent story telling…
