ReplyDeleteChadwick Boseman did a great job portraying Mr James Brown. Great acting and storyline. It visually takes you back to his beginnings. Wow! All I can say he was very poor and practically raised himself and against all odds he became very successful and a brand. I gained more respect for him from watching this movie. Must see.
