People aren’t wanting to dance with the new Whitney Houston biopic I Wanna Dance With Somebody.
Despite being a highly anticipated film about one of the best and most beloved singers of all time, the new biopic from the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Bohemian Rhapsody is getting negative reviews from most critics who have seen it. It is currently sitting at 44% rotten score on Rotten Tomatoes.
