Not one of my favourites but the plot is actualy good
Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx are perfect in the lead roles. Such a good movie and awesome story.
It's inspiring in really motivating recommend seeing it
Could have been better. Good movie but this all star cast disappoints. Could have been amazing with a little more effort
Good drama based on a true story with some excellent performances from the lead actors
Good drama that’s worth a watch once. Tells an inspiring story + both RDJ and Jamie Foxx had excellent performances that stick with you.
Incredible story, good scenes and well acted.
Simple, heart-wrenching drama. Shows off the two lead actors' amazing acting chops and flexibility in roles they can take, especially Foxx.
It was too simple and the plot is boring but good acting
Stellar performances elevate the soloist from being just an average film.
