Title: Not bad, fairly close to known facts
Review: I actually enjoyed this. Wood Harris did a good job in my opinion in playing the hell out of James Marshall Hendrix. Anyone who has seen the documentary "Jimi Hendrix" or the (in)famous Dick Cavett interview could see that Harris has done his homework in captuning Hendrix's speech patterns and mannerisms. This is particularly true in the scene where Harris-as-Hendrix tries to explain what he is trying to do with his music to the Mike Jeffery and Chas Chandler (Jimi's managers) characters.Much of what happens on screen here has appeared in the numerous bios of JMH.Harris plays Hendrix as a confused but sympathetic person that all surviving accounts indicate that he was in real life.
