Get on Up. In 2007, Jamie Foxx won Best Actor for his subtle performance as Ray Charles. Boseman exceeds that solid standard. Incarnating James Brown in all his ornery uniqueness, he deserves a Pulitzer, a Nobel and instant election to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Get On Up is at once the most unconventional biopic I’ve ever seen, and a shaggy composite of all of them. The only real difference is James Brown – but what a difference James Brown makes. Chadwick Boseman dazzles as “The Godfather of Soul” in a performance more Oscar-worthy than Jamie Foxx’s Ray or Will Smith’s Ali.
