Whitney (TV)

"'Whitney' is an odd mix. The love feels real, and you begrudge them none of it. Yet the problems are just as real, and it's hard to see what could have averted them. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)" 

"What emerges is surprisingly compelling." 

"A successful directorial debut for Angela Bassett." 

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

"Her pacing is off, and some of the scene changes too abrupt, but Bassett knows what she’s doing when it comes to actors, which becomes paramount when working with an uninspired script."
