Rares sont les chanteuses du calibre de Grace Davis (Tracee Ellis Ross). Mais si elle est adulée par plusieurs générations de fans, elle doit beaucoup au dévouement sans borne de Maggie (Dakota Johnson), son assistante personnelle, qui remue ciel et terre pour satisfaire ses moindres exigences. Pourtant, Maggie n’a pas renoncé à son rêve de devenir productrice musicale. Mais quand le fidèle manager de Grace propose à la star un projet susceptible de bouleverser sa carrière, Maggie se retrouve face à un choix crucial. Un choix dont même elle, malgré son professionnalisme, n’aurait pu imaginer les conséquences… (Universal International FR)

The High Note won me over thanks to the nice soundtrack and the unpretentious story, which smacks of cliché at times, but doesn't offend in any major way - moreover, the film deserves a thumbs up for the minor plot twist at the end, even if it was a bit of emotional blackmail. The cast was mostly decent, I was a bit surprised by Tracee Ellis Ross' age, and in the case of Dakota Johnson I still saw a bit of Anastasia in there, but so be it. Ice Cube had his typical pissed-off look on his face, and I liked the cameos by Bill Pullman and Eddie Izzard. In the case of Kelvin Harrison, it was a promising surprise (btw, his age surprised me a bit too). A nicely made little thing for a stronger three stars!
