Review of Talk to Me (2007) by Jeffery M — 19 Dec 2007
At least some of the other recent biopics give you some clue as to why you're supposed to care about their subjects enough to tolerate the genre's inherently ineffective narrative arcs. I'm to understand Petey Greene talked a few people down off their ledges during the riots following MLK's death, and .
.. that's it. Worse yet, the initially irresistible performances of Don Cheadle and Taraji P. Henson are flattened out and betrayed as the film itself goes increasingly soft. Unforgivable.
