| What's Love got to do with It? | 2008-12-02 | 5 / 5 |
| | After selection, the movie was mailed to me in exactly the time frame adverstised. Knowing it was previously viewed I was pleasantly surprised to find the DVD in perfect order and played beautiful. I recently saw Tina live in Houston. I wanted to see the movie again as it is a powerful tribute of where she was, how she got started, and how she was started again. I loved the heartfelt pain and triumped with her as she returned solo and became one of the greatest women of all time. |

| We Don't Like This Ike | 2008-10-24 | 5 / 5 |
| Great performances by Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishburne. By now everyone knows the story of Ike and Tina's nighmarish marriage, so the question is how well is it told? The story is told extremely well as Tina even supervised in the production. I have heard that Ike accepted a check for $40,000 rather than sue for damages and that this was the last time Ike and Tina ever spoke. Tina is said to have even avoided Ike's funeral.
The only thing I would warn anyone about in this movie is that there are several extremely violent scenes which could be disturbing to some people, most notably a horrifying rape scene.
The story is told realistically enough. The beginnings show a nervous and inexperienced Anna Mae anxious to please band leader Ike and to blend in with the other girls in the band who warn rookie Anna Mae about Ike's reputation. His girlfriend's bed isn't even cold before he starts romancing Anna Mae. Ike's ex-girlfriend, Lorraine threatens to shoot Anna Mae, but changes her mind, turning the gun on herself instead, but is so drunk she botches her own suicide attempt. Lorraine goes to the hospital, (she's ok) but Anna Mae is frightened and Ike is upset that Lorraine is just one more person who has turned against him. This sort of becomes a little song and dance that Ike likes to play for people when things don't quite go his way. He tried to help people who have turned on him and each time he tells it, it loses credibility as most of the time it seems to be Ike who turns on others. However, at first, Anna Mae seems to think she is only seeing a more sensitive side of Ike who is still little more than a perfect stranger. Early on in the movie, the band struggles to get gigs and rookie Anna Mae still feels uneasy around the others, but eventually she is accepted into the band, and even becomes Ike's legal wife, a decison she lives to regret as we all know. The band starts to climb the charts, the gigs get better, the money increases, as does the pressure to produce hits. Ike's drug abuse escalates as well as his jealousy at Tina's new found confidence and favor with audiences and producers and fans. While Tina and the others seem to be enjoying the success, Ike spends long hours at the piano and in the studio trying to come up with new hits. Again Ike becomes increasingly difficult to work with and eventhe other band members have a difficult time ignoring the growing tension between Ike and Tina and Ike and themselves, and Ike and the whole human race for that matter. Things seem to come to a screeching halt after a recording session with legendary producer Phil Spector who wants to work with Tina only, an ugly incident in a restaurant and on board an ariline, as well as Tina's unssuccessful attempt to take the kids and go back home, a rape and susequent suicide attempt lead Tina to divorce court. Tina files for divorce and wins easily while Ike is convicted of income tax evasion and possession of narcotics.
Tina revives her career solo and the movie ends with 80s Tina making her comeback and winning Grammy Awards in the process. |
