TALK TO ME

The true story of Washington DC disc jocky Petey Green...an ex-con who sky-rocketed to fame in the 1960's...is brought to Hollywood in TALK TO ME. The movie is solid...but every so often an average film can be greatly elevated by its cast - TALK TO ME is that kind of film. The two central performances of the movie are magnificently delivered by Don Cheadle and Chiwetel Ejiofor. Cheadle (CRASH, HOTEL RWANDA, TRAFFIC, BOOGIE NIGHTS) and Ejiofor (CHILDREN OF MEN, AMERICAN GANGSTER, KINKY BOOTS, DIRTY PRETTY THINGS) are both absolutely sensational. This is definitely a movie worth renting...not becuase of the script or direction or originatlity or any of that...but because you get two of the year's best performances for the price of one! 3 of 5 hs
