Dreamgirls (2006)
Not for everyone and not for me...the only spoiler is telling you its a "musical"
I did not realize this was a musical (people singing story dialog). I thought it was a story based on the era, which included performances. Now, I don't mind a musical, but did not enjoy this one. Hey, the singers are great...but since I did not know this was a 'musical' the movie trucked along like a normal story and 48 minutes in, they start to sing the dialog....what the..! So, OK...I can deal with this...nope. The movie seemed to be disjointed, flicking around..it did not know if it wanted to be a story or a musical...as I said, it was 48 minutes in before they started singing their lines (except for stage performances obviously) and over 2 hours....overly long. Quite a few people I know saw the movie and it was not promoted in Australia as a full on musical..so it disappointed a number of people that do not particularly like that style. I guess, since they have a story that can include excellent stage performance for the music, then why sing the dialog on top of it...spoils the continuity (for me anyway).

It was really bad
Bad, bad, bad.....I could not find one Redeemable quality about this flick. The acting was horrid & the editing is some of the worst I have ever seen.
It should stand as an education tool for how not to make a movie, that would be about its only use.
Some have suggested this is a thinking mans horror movie, ignore them or suffer wasting an hour and a half on this dribble.
Instead of suspense we get a character chopping around the screen depending on what the editor of the movie was smoking...the only reason we don't know whats going on during the movie is because neither do the actors, directors or producer. Even then a 12 year old could have created a better script.
Then we have the evil rubber monster at the end...whoopee doo. If you know anyone who likes this movie then you know they have serious mental issues. Jeez, even Killer Clowns From Outer Space looks like an academy award winning movie compared to this stinker.
