I watched the film recently, and was amazed by how brilliant it was. Not knowing about Tina Turner's life, I was shocked. The movie was pretty hard hitting.Laurence Fishburne was amazing in his role, he was very scary, and it just made you hate Ike for being so evil. Angela Bassett's performance was outstandingly amazing though - I've never seen so much good acting out of someone in a movie.All in all, I loved the movie, and any awards for it were well rewarded.10/10

Yes. Even though this 1993 bio-picture was a somewhat exaggerated retelling of 22 years (1958-1980) in the turbulent life of famed pop singer, Tina Turner - It was still, without question, certainly well-worth a view.Packed with plenty of brutally-fierce drama, and high-energy musical numbers - Both actress, Angela Bassett, and actor, Laurence Fishburne gave convincing, top-notch performances as a pair of dynamic performers and ill-fated lovers whose repeated head-on collisions with each other could only lead to one final conclusion.All-in-all - I recommend this picture, highly.*Trivia notes* - Angela Bassett's singing was all dubbed by Tina Turner.Director, Brian Gibson died in 2004.

A great biopic with terrific performances in the leads by Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne. You will feel for Tina as the movie progresses and will come away feeling thoroughly satisfied. Do not miss this great movie!*** out of ****
