    Obviously Whitney had one of the greatest, most profound voices - ever. This story was a nice mixture of her biggest events and a great representation of her art and strong personality. There was (thankfully) less focus on the final concern of her life, and more focus on her final show, which was a positive tilt.

  • Disappointing

    This was not a good telling of the stardom of Whitney Houston

  • Truly awful - no script - no story

    If you want to listen to some of Whitney's greatest hits. Then you'll like this. But there is zero story behind the music. Her downfall and addiction spiral is hardly touched upon. The best scene is the Superbowl National Athem - which is mostly on the trailer. So give the movie a miss !

    we seriously need to audio description, blind people can absolutely not miss out on this, such a brilliant film. And I really want to buy it. this film seriously needs audio description, still not happy that it doesn’t have it. I am now appalled that this film has been released without audio description, come on, it really doesn’t take much to sell it with the AD track

  • Great movie

    Seemed to lack something for me, thought would be a bit more hard hitting / dramatic that what was offered. Almost had a tv movie feel about it during certain scenes.
