Jennifer Hudson's new film 'Winnie, about the life of Nelson Mandela's wife Winnie Mandela, was already mired in controversy after the real Winnie Mandela condemned the film because no one came to her for input [click here if you missed that].
Now, after its screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, the film's reviews are not showing much promise...
