Jamaicans React To The Bob Marley One Love Teaser Trailer w/  

The trailer does not show that

@@JasonWalkerJamaica LOL, you want them to show Ziggy helping Kinglsey play his father? What are you smoking?

Is there proof to this? Like film footage that shows him there everyday? 🤔. Also Ziggy is NOT his dad, and isn't his dad's comrades. Couldn't there have been anybody older, that is also trustworthy, and that really loves Bob? Isn't anybody older than Ziggy, that knew The REAL Bob ALIVE, could have been used? Because this movie just looks like it's made by plain yt people

I don't see why They didn't just get Skip Marley to play his grandfather. He sounds exactly like him this actor sounds nothing like him

@@mugenryukyu199probably a terrible actor and can’t convey emotion.

Awwwww that’s sooo cute

Hopefully this film has a soundscape that goes far deeper into Marley's music (and politics/religion) than that 1984 _'Legends'_ compilation: *_"Despite its generally positive reception, Legend has been criticized for being a deliberately inoffensive selection of Marley's less political music, shorn of any radicalism that might damage sales. In 2014 in the Phoenix New Times, David Accomazzo wrote "Dave Robinson, who constructed the tracklist for Legend, [said that] the tracklist for Legend deliberately was designed to appeal to white audiences. Island Records had viewed Marley as a political revolutionary, and Robinson saw this perspective as damaging to Marley's bottom line. So he constructed a greatest-hits album that showed just one face of the Marley prism, the side he deemed most sellable to the suburbs. [...] If you're looking for mass-market appeal to secular-progressive America, you don't include songs that invoke collective guilt over the slave trade, nor do you address the inconvenient truth that the bucolic Jamaican lifestyle of reggae, sandy beaches, and marijuana embraced by millions of college freshmen, exists only because of the brutal slave trade. [...] the songs on Legend offer just a brief glimpse into his music. The definitive album of the most important reggae singer of all time is a hodgepodge collection of love songs, feel-good sentiment, and mere hints of the fiery activist whose politics drew bullets in the '70s." Vivien Goldman wrote in 2015, "when he does get played on the radio now, it's the mellow songs, not the angry songs, that get heard - the ones that have been compiled on albums such as Legend."_* _At the very least,_ this Marley film should be as _decent_ , scope filled, insightful, and aspiring as the 2008/2009, Soderbergh directed, 'Che' films...and at some point in "One Love", hopefully the Kingsley Ben-Adir version of Robert Nesta Marley obtains & maintains a very rich sun tan!!! ☀️😁

😂😂 stealing is not a good luck

You do know Bob Marley's Dad was a white British guy right? Americans talking shite as ever

stop that shit right now bro. who is “our culture” you’re an American. we might have the same skin color yes, but know this, Jamaicans are a different kettle of fish you feel me? we ain’t on the same side witchu. so get outta here with “our culture”🙄✊🏾

IDRIS ELBA CUD AV DONE A BETTER JOB

Bob Marley died when he was in his mid 30's. Ziggy Marley is 55. Wouldn't have worked.

Yeah the family is highly involved

They could've casted Skip Marley

@@jamk2668it would’ve worked better than Kingsley

I am in the trailer as a extra at the first part in the audience waving the Jamaican flag

Yesssss boo he is soooo cute

​@@ChunkStarBig up yuself! 🎉👏🏽💯

Oooooo I can’t wait to see

Cindy was a white Canadian transplant that moved to ja.

The real truth is the only truth🇧🇴🇯🇲🇧🇴 Give praises and thanks to the most high YAH,RASTAFARI. SELAH

Looks fake AF esp. wen he’s washing his locs pon di river👎🏾

Yes he is hella fine

Wig was a party city wig

Natty Dread 🇯🇲

I think he looks and sounds quite similar to Bob Marley I had a painting in my dining room as a kid and use to ask was it Jesus

Yeah he was doing pretty good

​@@_.varnelleI agree. I'm of Jamaican background and I felt it was pretty good. Ben Adir is a talented actor and I believe he's gonna nail the role.

I want to see that movie. I’ll see if it’s on streaming somewhere

U CANNOT BE BOB UNLESS YOUR A TRUE SMOKER OR TRUE MUSICIAN…. THIS IS SUM BABYLON BULLSHIT PRODUCED BY PARAMOUNT IN THE USA…. THE ACTOR IS NOT EVEN A REAL RASTA….!!

Bob marley's covenant/ crown was epic. Dont compare that wig to his dreadlocks

Looks fake AF! ESP at di river!

Damn disrespectful

should be ashamed of himself

Lol yes they did 😂😂😂

@@AyChristeneGames 😆

....hopefully, at somepoint in the movie, the Kingsley Ben-Adir version of Robert Nesta Marley obtains & maintains a very rich sun (or spray) tan!!! ☀️😁 Just a smidgen... 😁

😂😂😂

THEY NAH SELLOUT

He is such a great actor ❤❤❤

Same

Girl that waterfall scene 💦🌊💧

Lol soooo dense

😂😂😂 we had to do it so y’all could tell us apart

NOBODY CARES

​@@eric-vu1jywhy don't you be quiet cuz you don't know about my ancestors? Cuz if you don't know, that's none of your business cuz that's your opinion now tell that to your mother. How about that?

Lol

Honestly I don’t know if I’ve seen one lol

😂😂😂

Yes it is 😂

That is wild 😂😂😂😂

Yes it is tagged in the name

YOUR NOT INTELLIGENT- YOU TALK GUFF

She is amazing

@@AyChristeneGames indeed she is

BATTYMAN!!

I BELIEVE SO..

Jamericans

Which Jamaicans.... obviously they know nothing.

Embarrassing 😳

BABYLONIANS

I agree I imagine they definitely softened it for global consumption. I never knew there was a musical. I’ve gotta see if I can find it and check it out

@@AyChristeneGames The musical was happening recently in London on the West End ! It was great, there’s a really good album available from that show …I do hope the musical will come back soon in theaters. 🙂

I agree 💯

agreed

This is a popular criticism & I get it, matter of fact especially amongst Jamaicans it's the only one. Personally I think the actor has done a good job capturing his movements & rhythm. I don't think "real" actors get enough credit & acting is not as easy as people think especially when we're talking about complex character arcs, tics, disappearing.. losing yourself behind real emotions & crap, Kymani has experience not taking anything from him, but I think they might have been thinking more like what an actor like Denzel Washington brings to a role of say "Malcolm X" over like a "Training Day" or " Shottas" . My greatest worry honestly was the voice & accent. To which while not as thick as Bob's has enough resemblance to his inflection & cadence to be passable, with just the right amount of "proper" English to eliminate subtitles like in Jimmy Cliff's "The Harder They Come". That trailer has certainly raised the bar & there's a lot to live up to.. if the story is good & it's cut & shot the right way that movie is gonna blow out the box 4 corners worldwide guaranteed. We just have to wait & see. 😎

Exactly, it’s like using a Ghanaian to play Bruce Lee

​@@MindSSetMedia3241😂 no its not goofy the man has the same phenotype as Bob 😂 both are mixed and lightskin.

the damn trailer ruined the trailer experience

What does that even mean? They were obviously raised in the states, does that take away their Jamaican heritage at all? It is a reaction video, if you don't want commentary just watch the original trailer.

@@squirrelsinmykoolaid Thanks for your comment simpleton. Did you actually read what I stated or do you struggle with basic comprehension as well? I never said they couldn't comment. The point was to comment on the most meaningful parts of the trailer. It's a basic point.

I don’t know if you have ever done a reaction video before but these are just our raw authentic reactions and we were laughing and having fun so YES it’s very possible we missed the scene you’re talking.. being from the states has nothing to do with that.

No matter where you are from that man looked fine in that waterfall scene so I had to enjoy it twice. And I’ll do it 5 more times if I please.

Listen, this is a Reaction video... it's their reaction NOT yours. Gwaan guh mek a video fi yuself den!
