Adaptational Attractiveness: Let's face it: James Brown was nowhere near as attractive as Chadwick Boseman. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Get On Up / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: Largely averted thanks to the writers having the real Bobby Byrd as a historical consultant. While some criticized the film for not really showing how involved James Brown was in the Civil Rights Movement, this is a case of omitting history, rather than simply getting it wrong. A straighter example, though, is how James and Bobby meet while Bobby is performing at the prison where James is being held. In real life, Brown met Bobby Byrd soon after his release from prison. | |

Anachronic Order | |
| Get On Up / int_8b6e8d7 | comment |
Anachronic Order: The movie's plot isn't played through in any specific order: the film begins near the end of the story to set up How We Got Here, and then mainly plays from James, Bobby, and the Famous Flames beginning their career onward, showing clips from past scenes in order to provide context for some of the events that James experiences as he matures. | |
