The New Edition Story Audience Reviews

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
daughterof_ann Excellent! Amazing! Spectacular!If you don't like the music group New Edition, You will love them after watching this movie!!!The young cast as fans affectionately call the little's,set the bar for the older cast to take over the screen! Affectionately and appropriately called black boy joy,these talented men portray the original members to the T!!!I'm a new fan of them all!They did the original members of New Edition proud! The singing and dance routines were phenomenal!! The entire cast was pure perfection,particularly the actresses that portrayed their single moms.I grew up being fans of the original group and I longed for the day to see this biopic because it was well deserved. Happy that all members still alive to see it.See This movie, and feel good about multi talented people on screen and off!! NE FOR LIFE!!!
mshall-79650 This mini series was an amazing addition to the culture. It bridged the gap of generations. I ended up watching after a snippet of them recording Can You Stand The Rain and I was intrigued. Luke James's voice is phenomenal and mirrored Johnny Gill's so well. The Littles were great also! Elijah Kelley is so talented as Ricky Bell and he told the hell out of the addiction story! Algee Smith was beyond believable as Ralph Tresvant and he embodied his style. (Noticed that during the You're Not My Kind of Girl mash up). Bryshere Gray did amazing as Mike Biv. Woody McClain had me excited to look into the life of Bobby Brown. For this to be his first role he slaughtered this! Keith Powers played smooth Big Ron DeVoe and the funniest part is he was so chill until night 3. To see all they went through and where they are it's amazing. Now New Edition consists of 17 members because they became family. The cast is so committed to each other and show black men in a light that makes them happy, fun, emotional, and loyal. BET & Jesse Collins did phenomenal. The best biopic since SOC
mixedma1214 This bio was amazing , told the side we didn't see and didn't know, the music flooded memories , and told the truths , of the things that changed those boys to men ! ***** Its hard to imagine the struggles and temptations that's involved with stardom . It's amazing to see where they are now and all that the have overcome.
gpruwitmandymae-77-32637 Kudos BET and the cast of this amazing biopic. I was so immersed during the entire series and fell in love with New Edition's Story. BET please keep doing these with other artists and groups. This was excellent! The cast was so believable playing all of the members of the group. The younger actors did so well in their portrayal of NE's beginnings and the older team took it to the next level. I also loved that most of the cast was new. I loved that all the NE members were on board during the entire project coaching everyone on how to depict their lives. I loved the candidness of the story and how the message was about the strong bond of friendship and loyalty no matter what the circumstances were. They always found a way to get back to NE and that's commendable.
