Summary
A biographical drama tracing the rise of Aretha Franklin from a child singing in her father's Detroit church to becoming an international music icon. The film follows her struggles with family, personal relationships, and the music industry as she finds her voice and transforms into the Queen of Soul, culminating in the recording of her landmark gospel album Amazing Grace.
Released in 2021, Respect is a biography, drama and music film.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,929 2020s films, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 438 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 220 IMDb reviewers are calibrated for this title, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 233 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track.
