Respect

Découvrir l'envers du décor avec une impressionnante Jennifer Hudson !

Respect showcases Jennifer Hudson embodying Aretha Franklin with all the soul that lives in her, proving the testament to her talent and her deep “respect” for Aretha Franklin, especially as she was handpicked by Franklin herself before her passing. However, the biopic itself falls short of being truly exceptional. While it offers a glimpse into Franklin’s life and music, there’s not enough sparkle and dazzle that would elevate it to the status of a standout biographical film. Grading: B-

Great Movie!!! Highly Recommended!!! A++ 🍿🎥🍿

A good bio epic. It should include the cause of her demise

a must see for any serious music fan or student.

It absolutely deserves credit for being one of the few biopics that actually shows the process of the artist creating instead of just being stuck in perpetual montage mode. However, the movie still resorts to cliché when trying to move the story along which is rather frustrating.

Areta, through demons and musical genius

While not a perfect film, Jennifer Hudson gives a stellar performance as The Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. It's a rather long film that only covers her early years, which was surprising to me. However, the ending was nothing short of brilliant as Hudson completely channels "Ree" for a blistering performance of Amazing Grace. That alone is worth the price of admission.

Seen this once in theaters, and thought it would be a fun film, but it was dark than I thought it would be.

This is an excellent movie about a very talented artist such as MS. Franklin, the execution of it was well done that kept the story moving at a good pace. Jennifer Hudson's performance was fantastic; I forgot that she was the one on the screen at times. Overall, a great bio-film that has a touching and powerful ending.
