Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Gene SiskelThe movie is far from perfect — it has the kind of clunky, episodic script that has bedeviled just about every musical biopic in history — yet it’s driven by an electrifying soundtrack and by two performances of staggering power.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Jay CarrYou may not respect What’s Love Got to Do With It, but enjoying it is inescapable. A high-energy mixture of spectacular music, vigorous acting and cliched situations, this is a rough-and-rowdy fairy tale with a feminist subtext, and if that sounds perplexing, Love so pumps up the volume you won’t have much time to think about it.
Variety - 9/10 by Leonard KladyA passionate personal and professional drama that hits both the high and low notes of an extraordinary life and career. An immensely enjoyable saga that's tough, funny and touching.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertWhat's Love Got to Do With It ranks as one of the most harrowing, uncompromising showbiz biographies I've ever seen.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Owen GleibermanA splashy, volatile, crowd- pleasing rock-star melodrama that makes up in sheer emotional wallop what it sometimes lacks in finesse.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Jonathan RosenbaumAs a powerhouse showcase for the acting talents of Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne and as a potent portrayal of wife beating and the emotions that surround it, it's quite a show.
New Yorker - 9/10 by Terrence RaffertyFishburne's astonishing portrayal of Ike is what holds the movie together. The actor builds, in precise increments, a devastating portrait of a macho control freak; he even finds a kind of ghastly humor in the character's madness.
Variety - 9/10 by Variety StaffA passionate personal and professional drama that hits both the high and low notes of an extraordinary career.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliYou don't have to be a Tina Turner fan to appreciate this movie, but, regardless of your opinion of her music, What's Love Got To Do With It cannot fail to impart an impression of her courage and inner strength.
Nolan's Pop Culture Review - 8/10 by Michael A. SmithCould have been a made for tv movie but elevated by the work of Bassett and Fishburne.
