The writing is poor and the acting is mostly flat. The movie does not truly represent Aretha's electrifying persona. Hudson can belt and is a great singer, but she doesn't add the right pathos to Aretha. Overproduced. Great wardrobe and awesome colour grade.
Enjoyable and diverse superhero drama with some promising rising actors.
Here I am, after 2.5 hours. I'll keep this short as I have no interest in wasting further time. These notes were written during the movie, about 1.5 hours in, after I completely lost all investment in the plot, acting and dialogue.
1. The dialogue is like a game of ping-pong, not what you'd expect from seasoned pros making a high budget film.
2. In the writing, the plot is over-explained yet unclear...
3. The sound is terrible - music and sound effects loud, vocal delivery mixed low and seems like actors are often whispering...
4. The characters have virtually no depth, and I mean all of them. The baddie especially disappointing.
5. The script is very dull, confused and amateurish.
6. The photography and special FX save the film.
Fundamentally this movie is trying to be Inception, and fails.
Best part of the film is watching things go backwards, but even that looks awkward/staged/goofy at times.
I've seen reviews saying to watch this twice, that's really not the point of a movie especially not one that lasts 2.5 hrs.
