Bob Marley Hits The Theaters

By Jason Mojarro, Staff Writer | February 21st, 2024

Bob Marley One Love has been released and the people have spoken that the movie is a hit. People are saying that Bob Marley One Love could’ve been a hit with a well made story about the community and spiritual part of Bob's life but he rarely appears in the film but the film does succeed in some areas. 

Reviewers say that “Kingsley Ben-Adir plays a good Bob Marley. He's charismatic and plays the role well but the movie's story telling often slacks and the many flashbacks don’t pick up any of the slack the film makes. 

But reviewers also say that the film's main actor Kingsley Ben-Adir shows great accuracy in Bob Marley's mannerisms, inflections, and musical performativity. 

While reviewers say that the movie is mediocre at best, some of the people at Carson High are enjoying the movie and had a good time watching it.

“I at least hope it’s good Marley’s music calms me down when I’m stressed so I hope it meets my expectations” said Jasiah Smith CHS Senior.

“I don’t know if this movie will meet the expectations of all those die hard Bob Marley fans who’s loved forever” said Omar Torres CHS Senior.

“I’m seeing the movie a bit after it comes out so the movie theater won’t be so packed” said Paul Deese CHS Senior.

Whether Bob Marley: One Love was a flop or a hit it’s up to you to decide whether or not you think the movie was good or bad.
