Critic Reviews of "Whitney"
AV ClubJanuary 20, 2015While the wisdom of Whitney's premise is debatable, Bassett's execution is confident and thoughtful.
New York Magazine/VultureJanuary 20, 2015There'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.
Boston GlobeJanuary 19, 2015While 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.
NewsdayJanuary 16, 2015DaCosta, a former America's Next Top Model contestant, instead captures the butterfly -- or the one people fell in love with in the first place.
VarietyJanuary 15, 2015Working 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.
Paste MagazineJanuary 23, 2015Here'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?
Common Sense MediaJanuary 20, 2015A disappointing story that feels superficial and unfinished.
Boston HeraldJanuary 20, 2015The 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.
Winnipeg Free PressJanuary 15, 2015This 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.
San Francisco ChronicleJanuary 15, 2015It's not bad, thanks largely to a stellar performance by YaYa DaCosta and modestly successful direction by actress Angela Bassett, making her directorial debut.
