Fine, Fun Formula

A prime example of something completely formulaic being elevated by the look, the performances, and the MUSIC that this film in particular employs.
Dakota Johnson is slowly, but surely climbing to the top of the most affable "movie stars" (if there is such a thing these days) whose presence alone makes one want to spend time with a film.
What I really loved about The High Note though, was how it really focused on the creation and recording process of the music. Most music biopics aren't even wise enough to know to focus more on the "why" and "how" of the music its subject created rather than their personal lives, but this fictional tale not only puts emphasis on how the music comes to be, but realizes what it takes to bring melodies earth-side. The catharsis that comes with listening to Aretha here is tangible.
The whole idea of having Tracee Ellis Ross play this superstar singer who is at least physically modeled after her mother is pretty fantastic as well. Kudos to whoever cracked that bit of casting.

The High Note is advertised as being about a singer, her manager, & the new direction of her career. It doesn't tell you this movie is a vehicle for the assistant, & the older established stars don't get as much screenplay as the assistant in the movie. The surprise ending was a real surprise, but Tracee Ellis Ross & Ice Cube should have had much more story line and screenplay.
