Rating: 4/5 --
The film tapers off in its final reel, ending on a conventional note -- but not before it has done its best to capture its subject in all his manic and absurd glory.

Independent (UK)
[GET ON UP] thrillingly captures the frenzy of Brown’s music, and the forces driving that frenzy, both musical and personal.
New York Times
Rating: 2/5 --
There's more drama in one track from Live at the Apollo than 139 long minutes of this.

Little White Lies
3 stars out of 4 -- It’s the powerful, raw, energized performance by Chadwick Boseman that makes this film worth seeing.
Chicago Sun-Times
[Boseman] lets it loose in a firehose of charisma, determination, fury and unbridled funkiness.
Washington Post
Rating: 4/5 --
Director Tate Taylor's electrifying, energised portrait of James Brown rapidly takes a left turn away from formula via the musician's colourful brush with rock bottom.
Times (UK)
Rating: 3/5 --
Boseman's performance comes bounding in with such wicked attitude, and such a showman's determination to give us a good time, it's hard to harbour regrets for long.

Product Description:
Chadwick Boseman stars as James Brown in this biopic from Universal Studios and director Tate Taylor (THE HELP). From a childhood spent in poverty to his emergence as the Godfather of Soul, Brown's incredible life story is one of talent, determination, and perseverance. Brian Grazer, Mick Jagger, Victoria Pearman, and Erica Huggins produce a film co-penned in part by Jez and John-Henry Butterworth (FAIR GAME).
