Ray (2004)

I've always liked Ray Charles as a performer, so when I heard they were making this movie I was definitely interested in watching it. It falls somewhere in the middle for me as far as biopics go. It wasn't as innately fascinating to me as The Aviator, but nor did it just sit there and be dull. It had great music, an interesting plotline (primarily focusing on the battle for dominance between drugs and music) and I really did learn a lot of interesting things about the man that I hadn't known before. That's probably what a biopic is supposed to do... So I guess it did its job well, although I wouldn't ever sit down and watch it again. 3.5 stars.
