Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance with Somebody (2022)
Directed by Kasi Lemmons this film based on real events stars Naomi Ackie, Stanley Tucci and Ashton Sanders. We follow the career of Whitney Houston.
This is one of those biopics that is more of a synopsis than a film that actually digs into the issues of the protagonist. At times it feels like this is just an excuse to show off the hit songs and not much more, the fact that the film tries to end on a positive when Whitney dies of an overdose shortly after where it leaves off is baffling to me. Decent performances, paper thin script.
2/5
