    The musical path of James Brown, the godfather of American soul music. Growth, fame, failure to glory, the interspersed narrative style seems relatively fragmented, and a large segment of black music performances add color to the film, but it is this self-motivation to live out the spirit of self that is impressive. Chadwick Boseman's performance is not easy, and he must have done a lot of...

    NY 209. The voices are all from JB's real voice. The choreography and lip-syncing are all close to the original song. In addition to Boseman's excellent performance and stage performance, JB's soul is really possessed. This film also filmed JB's musical style changes from soul song to R&B to Funk. The only "regret" is that Boseman learns JB's fuzzy accent too realistically, and basically he can't hear every sentence completely. . . . ....
