Céline

This film is a disaster, especially if you are a true fan of Celine. Virtually none of the people presented really look like their real-life counterparts. The Dion family is almost completely misrepresented. The mother looks like an upper-middle class suburbanite. Most distressing are the vocal renditions, not only missing the mark in duplicating what was actually there, but doing it in a way that is hardly worthy of comparison to the original, both as a little girl and as a star. I hope they paid Celine plenty for this joke. It will serve her poorly as a memento. I especially disliked the songs done as a teenager. Some of them are exceptional, but not these. Unfortunately, this may keep people from going back and actually listening to the originals, which were great. Finally, her French is almost completely overlooked. Most of her early songs especially were in French. She didn't even know any English until she was about 14/15. Her Anglo-style persona just isn't her!

Loved this movie so much!! Loved the acting! Love this movie it shows us it's ok to fell in love with someone else who not the same age as you!! This movie may not be the whole true story of Celine but it's definitely tells us what kinda happen! Love the characters! It's so sad that Renee passed away! In my opinion this movie/celine and Renee love story was the most beautiful and unique love story I have ever heard/seen!! Thank you who ever created this movie! This movie is way better than the other Celine movie (Aline) that came out a few years ago! That movie in my opinion didn't have good actors and it's not even in English!!

And could not find ANY actresses that resemble Celine at any age in her life? The child looks like one that belongs in a horror movie, not trying to put her down but she doesn't look like Celine as a child whatsoever. The Tina actress should have turned down the role out of respect to Celine.

I don't understand how this was produced and people thought this was acceptable?

It's like making a movie about George Clooneys life and casting Carrot Top to play George. I mean, they look pretty similar, right? Almost twins. Doppelgängers.

How is this allowed? Seriously?

Everyone involved in making this movie should never brag to anyone about that because they will be forced to lie to you and say "it's great". How dare you put anyone in that position.

I liked it. It got me thinking; otherwise, I wouldn't be writing here. I fell asleep for a few minutes(I was tired; the movie didn't bore me) and suddenly Rene's really bad toupee was replaced with a bald head. What made him take the toupee off? Second question: it says on his bio that Rene married and divorced twice before Celine, not once. Does Celine's mother ever mention that in the movie? Third: I thought the voice-over singer was better than Celine, who's sort of nasaly like Barbara Streisand. Who is Trish O'Brien? I can't find her online.

And now a comment: I love Enrico Colantoni, who played Rene. No matter who he plays, a sleepy lovability surrounds him. He's totally hot in Just Shoot Me!

Just goes to show- if you're a celebrity and you don't take the time to write your own biography, then someone else will do it for you! It won't be accurate, but you'll get one.

Not one word of French which was odd and none of them even had an accent! I thought she could barely speak a word of English. To this day she still has a very strong accent. This woman who played her had no discernible accent at all. The sudden blond hair style at the end was a bit off putting and the actress didn't even resemble Celine at all. Pretty young woman tho.

Not sure what was up with Rene's hair. He starts out with a really bad toupee then he's bald. They tried to do details and it was a huge faux pas.

It was a wham bam trip down memory lane.
