Well the story of a man who obviously needs no introduction. Jamie Foxx was beyond 'great'. Almost every year, there is a performance that is sure to win the Oscar unequivocally. Last year Charlize took her award for her brilliant performance in "Monster" - and this year -it was Jamie Foxx.
However - there were the supporting roles that were also brilliant, but failed to get attention. Regina King gave a stunning and career defining performance as Margie Hendrix - but did not receive any credit. Curtis Armstrong - another BRILLIANT performance - which completely failed to gain any recognition.
As for the movie - it was good - not a brilliant piece of work, but a close call.Certainly worth watching - of you have 2 and a half hours free - just rent this.
