    [Highly rated reviewer]

    If it wasn't for the amazing soundtrack n great casting of some of the all time music legends, i would of given this film a much lower score. The film as a whole was such a mess, n felt unbelievably rushed. Bottom line is, it could of been so much better, and instead i just feel incredibly disappointed.

  • Well acted and a very interesting story

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By sdfilm (125 reviews) from Oxon , 06 Mar 2012
    There are lots of different characters in this and the movie focuses on each one in turn, so you can't get bored. The end gets a bit messy as everyone kind of jumbles in together, but it's still really good. Beyonce was very good in this and showed off a more more edgy side to her acting ability. The songs were great in this and the plot had a couple of unexpected turns. The costumes and sets were fab too. 100% recommend this for anyone who enjoyed dreamgirls.

    Being a huge fan of Beyonce, I was disappointed that she was not in it very much. I got a bit bored, but I think if you love this era of music, you are in for a treat.
