91A rowdy, richly offbeat biopic.
-
80The result is a movie that offers uplift without phoniness, history without undue didacticism and a fair number of funny, dirty jokes.
-
80While Cheadle's fearlessly robust performance absolutely galvanizes Talk to Me, it's not the only thing that makes Kasi Lemmons' third feature such a pleasure to take in.
-
60There’s terrific chemistry between the leads, but an episodic structure set over 20 years is too sprawling to really allow for a connection.
