The movie needs a rewrite and reshoot or just Whitney Houston's voice belting out "I Will Always Love You." Or it needs to be ignored.

While the wisdom of Whitney's premise is debatable, Bassett's execution is confident and thoughtful.
January 15, 2015
Working from a script by Shem Bitterman, Bassett manages to make both of her leads relatively sympathetic, and to keep the story moving even when not a lot is happening.

This story is limited in range, refuses to test any boundaries and is content to remain in a safe middle range without ever soaring to heights that might thrill. And because of that, not even the most devoted Whitney Houston fan will always love this.

Here's the thing, as far as standard Lifetime movies go, this was a decent film. But the question is, does Whitney Houston deserve just 'decent,' or does she deserve an HBO miniseries, or a Hollywood film?

In the end, you really are better off with the YouTube videos.

There's something pure and insightful about how [Angela] Bassett's camera looks at this couple as they flirt, rut, marry, fight, talk about their careers, and experience wild ups and downs, including moments of professional resentment or jealousy.

A disappointing story that feels superficial and unfinished.

A successful directorial debut for Angela Bassett.

DaCosta, a former America's Next Top Model contestant, instead captures the butterfly -- or the one people fell in love with in the first place.

It's not bad, thanks largely to a stellar performance by YaYa DaCosta and modestly successful direction by actress Angela Bassett, making her directorial debut.

While neither overly salacious or reverent, Whitney ... lacks dynamism in telling the tale of a very dynamic life, and falls short of illuminating anything about Houston that both diehard fans and casual observers of pop culture didn't already know.
