Movie Reviews of Sparkle
Movie Review: This Will Always Be My Favorite Version of Dreamgirls!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this film here and was delighted when it was released to DVD!
Everything about it, from the soundtrack to the storyline
to the amatuerish acting was just fantastic!
A young Phillip Michael Thomas put the PH in PHOINE!!
I was 12 yrs old when my family and I saw this at the theatre!
Aretha's voice was still primo back then, and with Curtis Mayfield's music..you just can't get anymore soulful!
I will take this movie over that overrated-fake CZ-wearing-homogenized 2006 movie "Dreamgirls" any day!!
This 2-disc version has highlights from the soundtrack
of Sparkle included!--Aretha was the truth back then!
Movie Review: Disappointed!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Sparkle is an African-American cult classic film. It has been cherished by millions in the African-American community for years. How dare Warner Bros. disgrace the legacy of this film? Why is the sound not in 5.1 Dolby Surround? Why did they include the soundtrack as a bonus? We the fans have had this soundtrack since 1976. Where are the Bonus Features? Cast interviews, restored footage from the original uncut unedited version, commentary from the director Sam O'Steen, or Joel Schumacher???
This is a travesty!
Movie Review: Before my time, but still great!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this movie when I was a kid around 1994 I believe. My mom was always having me watch ALL these "old school," movies and while then I did it more to make her happy...today I realize she did me a BIG favor introducing me to classics most kids my age never even HEARD of. I'm not in my late 20's and still remember ALL the songs to this movie. Its definately a classic and while it has its corny moments, is mostly a great movie with a lot of heart. I just bought this for my mom and sent it to her as a surprise...she'll be THRILLED. :)Movie Review: TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!!! THE WAIT IS OVER
Summary: 5 Stars
I was afraid a few months ago when I was hunting for this and heard it was only overseas. The shipping was really expensive and it was in a strange format. But, this is the greatest story of music, pain and triumph made. Nothing like it has been made to date. I have been looking for this forever! It's taken my entire lifetime to put two great movies (this and Mahogany) on DVD that our children can learn to love as well. Way to go!!!Movie Review: An All-Time Favorite!

I can remember seeing Sparkle as a kid and have loved it ever since. This is one of those movies from which you will be quoting lines by rote for the rest of your life. The Curtis Mayfield score is incredible, and the songs still stand out today (as evidenced by their being remade by Whitney Houston and En Vouge). Anyone who loves a good love story, a good musical, or just a good movie should own a copy of Sparkle.
