Atom User Reviews for Whitney Houston: I Wanna Dance With Somebody
An incoherent montage of Whitney's life.
Awesome Movie! Focusing on her great Music & Career and not the Tragedy. Songs bring back great memories!
I was so glad to see her dynamic interpretation of Whitney's characterization! so amazing and brought chills to my body on the performances
The movie was done very well. The actors did a great performance. It was not violent, graphic sex, or inappropriate in any way. I loved the singing.
It was okay. I could've been longer and more detailed about her life.
I think they did a good job, I just wished they would not have gone so deep in her drug addiction and concentrated more on the good things about her.
The tragic story of a talent lost too soon to the negative side effects of stardom and sudden wealth
Didn't want to like it, but I LOVED it. A very moving & sensitive Tribute. I love that it ended on a positive memory & the pictures from her life at the end are nice.
this movie was fantastic, the singing, the clarity, the memories. I cried, sang, and reminisced. the best part is my husband usually falls asleep on our movie night, but he was up enjoying it just as much as me.
Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Naomi did an awesome job portraying Whitney.
It was too long and 20 minutes of previews was way over the top, i think the cost of the movie was too high. I don’t think Atom done me any good since I lost the five dollar tmobile discount because the theater was closedon the original dsy because of a winter storm
One of the greatest movies of all times
excellent cast. acting was great. all of the characters were well done
Really good movie. Told differently from any I've seen before.
This movie was probably one of the best. I’ve never been so awestruck in my life.
I felt like it were Whitney herself acting in the movie. It is as impactful as Bohemian Rhapsody to me.
An absolutely amazing tribute to one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Hope they do more like this
one Person that I didn't like was Bobby Brown they was he was Using Drugs and other stuff .
I really enjoyed this movie. It showcased her rise to stardom and focused more on her personal struggles. Definitely gone too soon. Whitney was a powerhouse!
One of my favorite movies now
never seen the movie and noone would help with a gift card or refund.
The best parts are when you hear Whitney‘s voice. Being a true fan and remembering witnessing actual events, the movie took far too many liberties and made the movie not authentic.
I wish I had watched Woman King instead. Whitney was an amazing artist, and I feel like this movie really dimmed her light.
great actor's loved it!
The concession staff yelled at me and I had to report him to management.
This movie covers the life of Whitney Houston but the movie is pretty cliche and predictable if you seen other Musical biography movies.
Naomi was wonderful as Whitney !!! Stanley Tucci as Clive Davis was inspired casting,dead ringer for him.
It was very tastefully depicted
It was everything I expected and more Great all around movie.
Nobody could sing like Whitney. It was a tradegy her death. Movie plot was boring. Loved the songs.
Actress played Whitney well! But didn’t look like her! Overall it was a good movie!
This truly was such a beautiful story that many will not even begin to understand! We love you Whitney!
Truly fantastic!
A tragic story about an incredibly gifted talent.
I was just finally happy to see a biopic about Whitney that showed her legacy as an artist instead of focusing so much on her downfall as an artist. I mean we all know she had her demons with drug use but this showed the rise and the fall, all other movies focused ONLY on the bad. As a Whitney fan, I cried several times throughout this movie bc of how pleased I was with the storyline.
Nothing apart from music
told Whitney story correctly
Love Whitney! This movie captured her life perfectly.
Whitney The Voice Houston. Wow. To this day, no one has the voice and power and ambition that Whitney had. RIP to the Queen. 🥀🖤
Acting /casting was weak
excellent movie, well done, would see again.
I had my reservations about seeing this movie. I’m glad I did.
It was great!! I even cried and I'm not a cryer
Wish I could give it 2.5 stars, but closer to 3 than 2. A just-okay music biopic with a lead performance worth celebrating, but little else. Takes no chances. Amazing music, of course.
One of the best movies I have ever seen but such tragic ending. It's sad when someone with one of the greatest voices of all time dies.
I was crying
All of her hits played/sang in the movie do a great job of showing you the behind the scenes look in to her sentiment while transporting you back in time to when these songs were chart topping hits. It was so nostalgic that I cried all through the movie. Whitney had an amazing voice and it is a tragic loss still felt today
PERFECT TRIBUTE
We miss you Whitney
I think I cried most of the movie - definitely a MUST SEE!! Bring some tissues or grab extra napkins.
Metacritic
I wanna feel the HEAT … but I don’t. On the contrary, the animatronic new Whitney Houston biopic “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” left me shivering from a gust of arctic air as it so clinically and lazily examines the tragic life of the famous singer.
The indelible, unmatched voice of Houston may live on, but I Wanna Dance with Somebody lacks the ingredients of what made Houston a force that permanently altered every person who truly heard her.
There are only clichés in this rise-and-fall material, with the sole distinctive wrinkle being the weight given to the rise versus the fall.
