    Bob Marley One Love FAB UK Review

    BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE

    Paramount Pictures

    Released Wednesday 14 February

    Synopsis: Jamaican singer-songwriter Bob Marley overcomes adversity to become the most famous reggae musician in the world.

    Cast: Kingsley Ben-Adir, Lashana Lynch, James Norton
    Director: Reinaldo Marcus Green
    Cert: 12A

    FAB UK Review:

    his film has received less than mixed reviews and one can see why.

    Bob Marley, was, and still is, a very popular and famous figure, known throughout the world then, and still now, 40 years after his death. But this film doesn’t give us this, it doesn’t convey the grand magnitude this one man has/had in the cultural milieu.

    The film covers a period that spans from 1976, when political unrest in Jamaica boiled over and Marley narrowly survived an attempt on his life, through his time based in punk-era London where he recorded the seminal album Exodus, to his return to Jamaica in 1978 for the One Love peace concert. So yes, only two years of his life. We don’t really get to know how he became who he became (though there are flashbacks to his youth) – in the way Baz Luhrmsnn gave us the full narrative of Elvis Presley in his movie from last year ‘Elvis’ , ‘Marley One Love’ Director Reinaldo Marcus Green gives us a very expedited biopic. While Kingsley Ben-Adir is adequate enough in the main role, some scenes look too staged, the relationship with his wife and kids is too thinly drawn, and at the end there are very few emotional hills and valleys that most biopics provide that leaves you with the feeling you’ve just been on a journey about someone’s historical and meaningful life. The worst of all is that Marley died at such a very young age (36) in 1981.
