My Vague Review: Sparkle

So, I saw the 'Sparkle' remake and to sum it up... It was cute, safe and entertaining. I'll give you my vague review.

• Jordan Sparks was cute and she's grown up well.
• The movie was very crisp and clean, not gritty and street like the original. 
• The wardrobe was nice, but not era or scene appropriate. Seemed to be off several years.
• Sister was good, believable and interesting. Her voice was sexy and sweet, which was a plus.
• However, their voices were not soulful enough for the style of the songs.
• They changed a lot in this film. In fact, it could've been a whole other movie.
• Dee was stronger in this version.
• Whitney was great in the film, it was sad in some parts because it was like she was talking about herself.
• Some of the performances were a bit much, but Sparkle's performances were good.
• Some scenes felt out of place.
• There were some great lines in the film.
• 'One Wing' is a cute song.

I recommend the film. It didn't 'wow' me, but it was cute and steady. However, I still prefer the original. 

Question of the Day

I'm a little bit worried about the Sparkle remake. It's looks like a Dreamgirls sequel and less like the real deal, street style version the original was.

However, I have to see it in honor of Whitney Houston. So, I ask you all... Are you going to see the remake of Sparkle?
