Supreme Cmdr Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 I'm not a big fan of musicals, but man, this movie surprised me. Well acted, well done and the singing is top notch. A really good family movie. 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Trotter Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Ditto! I guess its not cool to like this movie around here, but i really, really enjoyed it. So did my wife who saw the original in NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrivener Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Not so much. I generally do like musicals, but this grated on my nerves. It's a shallow, racist, two-hour musical montage cliche. Worse, the songs aren't very catchy either - especially when compared to the period songs they're inspired by. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised, considering this was written by the same jackass who raped the theatrical adaptation of Chicago. Dreamgirls is like "That Thing You Do" with just a little more variety, and even less substance. Certainly not worth a tenth of the hulabaloo it's been getting... and the fact that ANY of these songs was nominated for an Academy Award is absolute stupidity. Wait for it on cable. 4/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Trotter Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Racist? Dude, I think you hated this movie before you saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
