One of the worst movies I've ever seen

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

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

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.

With regard to expectations, this TV biopic of New Edition exceeded those and so much more. From night 1 to night 3, there was a sense that this could go on forever, or at least a few more nights. If you were a New Edition fan growing up or love black musical history, this miniseries was for you. I honestly think that BET could have stretched it out to a full 13-episode series (1hr) like the ones on Netflix. The production was great and the musical choices were awesome because it had the REAL music unlike some of these other TV biopics (*cough-cough LIFETIME). Also this was one of the most authentic biopics to date because BET was able to get the real characters that were involved.In short, watch this miniseries. You will NOT be disappointed. No spoilers here, just go watch the movie! 10/10

The New Edition Story was not a perfect TV show, but it was a perfect TV experience. It had just about every piece that a miniseries like that needs to have to make it feel weighty and worthwhile.It probably didn't hurt that the members of the group were producers on the miniseries. It has the ideal music group story line,It has the perfect group for this kind of thing,It has the neat little movie nerd tidbits in there. When It Was Over It felt like I'd been shoved out of a plane. I was 100 percent not expecting to feel that way about New Edition. Or any sort of way, really. It was right then that I realized how hard the show had worked to get to that point, and to draw out that specific response. It got me.I liked The New Edition Story a lot. Again: I didn't realize I felt that way until it was almost over — until it was almost too late, I suppose. But I guess that makes sense. And that might've even possibly been the point.
