Atom User Reviews
Incredible! Outstanding! Very moving and inspiring! Jennifer Hudson deserve an academy award for her portrayal of Aretha! Definitely a must see!! 👏
Her songs take on a new perspective, after learning what ignited most of her hits.
Metacritic
The preceding two-plus hours of this 145-minute slog — Tommy’s threadbare hodgepodge of bad impressions, gratuitous filmmaking, and even worse depictions of mental health — isn’t even a shadow of the real natural woman.
The casting is the only part of the movie that feels genuine, with Hudson channeling the Dreamgirls emotive performance that earned her an early career Oscar.
Similar to other recent musical biopic vehicles like Judy and The United States vs. Billie Holiday, Respect never reaches the greatness of its shining star.
