Valérie Lemercier co-wrote, directed and stars as the singer. She portrays her from childhood in Quebec (thanks to weird digital adjustments) to superstardom in Vegas and beyond. This includes some of her most famous songs, performed by Victoria Sio. I've never been a big Dion fan, so I can't speak to the veracity of the bio, but it covers the highlights that I was familiar with, including her controversial marriage to her much older manager and the Oscar performance for the hit from Titanic. Lemercier is able enough, but the whole story feels like a Wikipedia account without much emotional depth, even with her struggles. It's not clear whether the singer's fans will abhor or appreciate this film and since it's not an authorized biography, any other viewers may not even care. As such, it's more a curiosity as a vanity project for Lemercier, not Dion. (Some French with subtitles)… Expand

Is it possible to appreciate a semi-biopic about a singer one doesn't admire directed by who, on the contrary, adore her so much to deify her surname (Dion=>Dieu) and even play her role? The almost Céline, vocal range of 3(Mauro Lanari)
Is it possible to appreciate a semi-biopic about a singer one doesn't admire directed by who, on the contrary, adore her so much to deify her surname (Dion=>Dieu) and even play her role? The almost Céline, vocal range of 3 octaves and 3 notes, is an ordinary girl from Canada French (Quebec) with whom ordinary girls from half the planet identify making her an international pop star (of I do not know what songs: the Oscar for the main theme of "Titanic"? Meh) with an estimated assets of $ 450 million ("Forbes" 2019), the third richest female musical artist in the world. Neither comedy nor passionate and exciting drama, but in these cases those who watch the movie are the same audience that goes to a concert with the Whitney Houston hologram. Ps: on the other side, if a star were not deified, what diva would she be?… Expand
