Covering the true story of one of the most well known musicians in the world, Bobby Brown, an ambitious talented musician, who faces many challenges and obstacles throughout his life that prevents him first from achieving his goal, but through his strong will and determination, overcome them all and take the benefit of them as well, till he gains fame and becomes one of the most well known figures in music.
The Bobby Brown Story reveals a compelling miniseries filled with the sort of controversy, nostalgia and personal ups and downs that music fans and pop culture junkies find irresistible.
If you, like me, are a sucker for schlocky TV biopics because you'll never get around to reading the celebrity memoir, this will be a veritable candy store.
Despite the demands of a story filled with so much melodrama, McClain -- reunited with the key members of the New Edition creative team -- proves a solid anchor, convincingly playing Brown across a wide span of years.
For the subjects involved, the self-produced biopic is a kind of unobstructed release of their side of the truth... For the viewer, it's a nostalgic, intimate (and debatable) encyclopedia that gives us both tough and light moments.
