This is the discussion topic

anyone in US seen this yet?

read some mainstream reviews

whats the view from the real world ?

I spoke with David Nathan about he movie the other night...he thinks it's great and thats good enough for me.

I downloaded the soundtrack after you first mentioned it the other day, it was horrible. Then again, probably not what I was expecting

Main release date is 16th January in the States. I'll be there. I've not seen the previews purposely, but am looking forward to seeing it.

Regards,

Dave

See this at a BAFTA screeniong a few weeks ago - very good movie but prob best to bear in mind this is a musical adaptated to screen before it is a 'Soul' music picture. Jennifer Hudson can really SING. I was lucky enough to hear her blast out a few verses from 10 feet away at the Q&A after the screening. Some voice!!

Same costume as 'Ray' so pretty authentic wordrobe and settings not bad either. Don't go if you are a fan of Diana Ross basicly her story - right down to the outfits - and doesnt paint a very nice picture of her but I guess most on here will know the stories.
