Featured review
Every scene feels individual; lacking flow and full storytelling
The acting was good, the scenes regarding the music and the artistic creativity involved in the endeavor were good, and every scene individually was fine.
What this film lacks is actually direction. It felt disjointed and choppy from the very beginning. It was hard to keep straight what was going on and why. The motivations of events were hard to follow, and conflicts appeared and disappeared without a trace. The actual flow and arc were kind of non-existent in this movie.
I felt the scenes between on-screen Bob and Rita and Bob with the band were the absolute strength. There was chemistry there that felt natural and that felt like I was really getting a glimpse into Bob Marley at this period of his life.
It's so close to being a really good movie, but the lack of continuity in the storytelling robs it of reaching the potential.
