Jarod E This doc was heartbreaking and warming all at the same time. Celine is an icon and beloved artist throughout the globe, and getting this rare glimpse into her life with an honest and raw story told through simple yet effective editing, you can’t help but love her even more. Fan of hers or not, this is a must see story about the human condition and spirit and power of positivity when the darkest days try to overcome you. Props to the filmmaker for capturing this story in the way she did. I hope this doc gets all of the acclaim it deserves! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/25/24 Full Review Benjamin K Peel back the curtain and see the real life of pop superstar Céline Dion. Her battle with stiff person syndrome is nothing but inspiring. She truly wants to continue performing and singing, and does not know who she is anymore due to the ravages of this disease. Heartfelt, authentic, distressing, and honest. You will leave the theater changed. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/24/24 Full Review Jim F I understand the sympathy vote here, but this is a terrible doc. There are huge gaps in explaining her illness clearly, her husband’s death is passed over in the most disrespectful way, and the timing of not including her Olympics comeback is just unfortunate. Dion is a big, melodramatic personality, so when something truly awful happens to her, how are we supposed to react? What’s OTT and what isn’t? I feel like an unsympathetic ass writing this, but this was cringy from beginning to end. Sorry. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/10/24 Full Review Carlos v I Am Céline Dion shows that behind the most powerful voice in music history lies a powerful, resilient, strong and wonderful woman Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Audience Member This film is definitely one for fans or even just lovers of music! I cried so many tears throughout the film. It was heartwarming yet heartbreaking at the same time. A true look into the life of an icon Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Audience Member This film was absolutely incredible and heartwarming yet heartbreaking at the same time. I cried so many tears during this. I highly recommend to any fan or any fan of music Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
