When it comes to recent biopics, I was expecting more from this. With such a huge star and story as Aretha had, it seemed this film fell far from the mark.
The stories within the movie lacked a lot of depth which made it hard to generate any emotion towards any characters. In one transition, aretha went from hearing her single be played outside a record store to her then stood centre stage in madison square gardens to a sell out crowd.
Even further before that, the Columbia records interview is simply done and dusted within a minute.
Sadly this biopic just didn't reach the high standards of recent movies.
