This movie was nothing short of incredible. It was the perfect adaptation of the life of the Godfather of Soul himself, James Brown. Chadwick Boseman gave an incredible performance as JB, making us all believe he was the man himself. The film went back and forth during different points in Brown's life, showing how he became the iconic musician. This is definitely one of the best films of the year.
