Don Cheadle plays Ralph Waldo 'Petey' Greene and ex-con who became a DJ in Washinton in the 1960's who was known for "telling it like it is".
Thats about it. Thats about the excitement level of the film. To be certain the film deals with social change and the relationship between Petey, his girl, the station manager and the world, but its completely uninvolving. I didn't care what happened mostly because I kind of could guess where it was going. Cheadle turns in his usual note perfect "why doesn't this man have an Oscar" performances, but thats all there is. Its Cheadle and only Cheadle in this totally forgettable biopic.
Wait for cable
