Wendy Williams: The Movie (2021 TV Movie)
6/10
Well filmed & put together; not ground-breaking, but enjoyable if you're a Wendy fan

Firstly, I think that Wendy should have made this available on-demand, to international viewers. At this date of writing, the only good quality version is available in the US.

Anyway, I think it was an interesting movie & I really gained an insight into Wendy's life & everything she's been through. The way it was shown, made it feel real. And the really heavy scenes were done tastefully. The acting was great, particularly the actress who played Wendy. (Bravo to the directors; I think they did a great job!)

My only minor critique is, I think that the mid to latter portion of the movie overly focused on her relationship with Kelvin. Whereas, I would have *also* liked to see a bit more about Wendy as a person, her hobbies, interests, friends, the intricacies of how the Wendy show was developed over time, perhaps a funny story etc. (all of which I think was glanced over). But then again, maybe what we got was true to reality i.e. Kelvin dominated those past 20 years & there's nothing else worth mentioning.

Although overall, it's a great movie which is worth watching if you're a Wendy fan.
