Who had the best lead performance so far? Why?

posted 9 years ago by kokane7

Chadwick Boseman - James Brown
David Oyelowo- MLK
Jason Mitchell- Eazy E

I think Jason had the best lead performance because he carried that range throughout the whole film and he made me believe he was Eazy. I thought Chadwick and David did a good job but some reason, I felt their performance was a little ordinary. That's my opinion.
