A movie review--Cadillac Records

Posted On: Wed Dec 31, 08 7:07 PM

Don't worry, I already watched it at the theaters. I digress, this is a review for Cadillac Records, a docudrama in the same veins as Ray and Walk the Line. The movie deals with the rise

(and eventual fall)
of Chess Records and the creation of the Rock 'n' Roll music genre. A lot of famous musicians are portrayed, such as Muddy Waters, Eta James, Little Walters, Chuck Berry, Rolling Stones etc. The performances of the actors are superb and the pacing of the movie is quick. I personally liked the makeup that some actors donned to make them appear older as the years passed. Also, the character development is topnotch. The only problem with the movie is that it feels kinda short and these type of movies (Ray, Walk the line, Cadillac Records) may not be for everyone. Besides this, this is a pretty good movie that deserves people to watch it.
