Bob Marley: One Love

Was I the only one that thought it was too short?
“Music will run like river”

Underwhelming and uninformative. A lot of music biopics feel fake, and this fits right in. The production felt good, same with the cinematography, but it's nothing great. The acting from Kingsly felt so put on it took me out of several scenes. The whole 'biopic' side was so unbalanced. It dragged out parts that don't add to his life and completely misses parts that do. The musical side to this was great because of Bob's songs. The dialogue and pacing match each other in the number of times I eye rolled. A letdown from the key parts I thought it needed but an adventure for the good few parts.

Really liked it, but I wish I watched with subtitles 🙈

He played Bob Marley well but the story was quite un-detailed and short. Obviously we know the ending of the story but it just felt like it was missing elements to truly show how big he was. But maybe that’s because his true fame came after his death.

7/10.
