Movie Review: DreamGirls

26 May 2007 20:24 (Edited: 26 May 2007 20:24)

Yesterday i was sitting home alone and bored out of my mind. So i had enough there was nothing on TV and i have already seen all my DVD's that i have got. So i got ready and went downstairs to the corner shop where i can get my DVD's too. So i just wanted to get some movies which i got two one DreamGirls and the second one was Deja Vu. (Will review deja vu after this) So anyway mum got home by then so as per usual we sat and watched dream girls.

This was a great musical excellent original songs and all. The best cast ive seen together since Grease.

The story as we know was loosley based on The Supremes. I have to say Jenifer Hudson played her role to perfection she has a immaculate voice and Simon from American Idol has no idea of what he was talking about.

The story was long and while watching it. It reminded me of watching a Bollywood film the only difference was this was in a language i could understand fully.

Beyonce, jamie Fox Eddie and the rest of the cast played well and it was good to see Eddie go back to singing i remember in the 80's he sang a song with Michael Jackson "Watsupwitu" Thats wat it was called. Good song but he did not have a voice then but i have to say bravo to the Nutty Professor and his vocal talents.

The movie was real good and i loved the ending and i really loved the song it did hit the nail on the head when it came to the American Race issue that was going on during that time and is probably still going on to some level there still.

It is a must see if you like Motown and love that era of music. They had things like the ed sulivan show but had the groups that preformed on those types of shows except they had to change the names of the songs and the groups performing they had a group that looked like the Jackson 5 but was renamed something else because of copyright issues.

If the did not do that the movie would have cost heaps more.

Its a movie worth seeing with anyone date movie or family get together etc..

My Rating 9/10

This is mainly because of Jennifer Hudson's performance well done girl. Simon can eat his words now :)
