It’s an inspired performance that creates a complex character out of the pop music legend.

World Socialist Web Site

David Walsh

Overall, ... the filmmakers have taken the line of least resistance, fashioning a familiar, 'inspirational' American tale about a man who overcomes personal trauma and experiences individual success. There's little richness in that.

The soul-stirring sounds of music legend Ray Charles keep saving the day for this straightforward, safe-bet biopic.

It's hard to think of a more artless film depicting such a talented artist.

RAY suffers from having not enough story to warrant a feature film and too much talent wasted on caricatures of historical figures. RAY, like last year's BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, is too focused on homage rather than telling a convincing and stirring story.
