The Whitney Houston’s Biopic which was Angela Bassett’s
directorial debut has received both positive and negative remarks from
the general public. The movie which focuses on the life of female music
phenomenon, Whitney Houston, chronicles her rise to fame and turbulent
relationship with husband Bobby Brown, including their steamy courtship,
marriage and the birth of their daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown.

And it seems fans weren’t too impressed with some aspects of the
Whitney Houston biopic either, with hundreds taking to Twitter to
criticise the movie’s graphic sex scenes and the portrayal of excessive
drug use.
The three extended sex scenes between actress Yaya DaCosta and
on-screen love interest Arlen Escarpeta left little to the imagination,
with many younger users switching off and complaining the biopic wasn’t
family friendly.

Many felt frustrated that the film was too Bobby-centric, portraying
the R&B star as a victim, lured into a drug-fuelled party lifestyle
by Whitney. Whitney was played by Yaya Dacosta while Allen Escarpeta
played Bobby Brown.
