It's a daunting and usually thankless task to take on the cinematic depiction of two iconic singers. One risk is the audience being disappointed with the quality of the vocals. The good news with this film is that the leads did so well, that any distinction between the performance and the real thing didn't distract from the enjoyment of the experience. It might not have been Patsy and Loretta right on, but the vocal renditions were so solid that is was close enough.
The voices and the acting deserve at least a 7, but some other quality issues made me rate it a 6. A 6 that we thoroughly enjoyed. It exceeded expectations by a "country" mile.
