I Wanna Dance with Somebody

The song-filled biopic of Whitney Houston who garnered accolades throughout her singing career becoming known as "The Voice".

The singer's story is one of talent matched by the tragedy of her off-stage life. "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" wavers between being a best-of concert and a behind-the-scenes expose. The story scope is broad, and even with an extended run-time, there's only time to skim over the already-known highlights. The production balances the performer with her performances, leaning heavily on delivering the song highlights and leaving audiences wanting to applaud in the cinema and google for backstory details at home. Bittersweet memories.
