SPARKLE
MUSCIAL DRAMA
This is a remake
of 1976 movie. It takes place in the
sixties with singer Jordin Sparks as Sparkle a beautiful gifted songwriter and
singer if she would get over stage fright. Her acting is okay. She has two sisters Sister
(played very well by Carmen Ejogo) and Dolores (Tika Sumpter) she is great and
she is dark skinned and usually writers make them so ghetto but she was very
smart and sensible. I hope to see these
actresses in more movies.
Their mom Emma
(played by the late, great Whitney Houston) doesn’t want them to sing for she
tried unsuccessfully. She sings one song. Sister hooks up with the wrong man
Satin, a stand -up comic (Mike Epps, Friday, The Hangover) I didn’t like his
character but he may be portraying Richard Pryor in an upcoming movie. It is a good movie if you like singing but if
you can wait for video do so.
RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION
ACTION/SCI-FI
The fifth of the
series stars Milla Jovoich as Alice who has to save the world again. Plot really not important because they are
not following the plot of the video game.
The ONLY reason you should see it to see the action and there is a lot
of it!! The women for the most part
kicking all the ass and they are Michelle Rodriguez and Sienna Guillory. It is worth seeming on video.
DREDD-3D
ACTION/SCI-FI
I was one of the
ten people who enjoyed the 1995 movie Judge Dredd starring Sly Stallone. Now the film is rebooted and it is very
violent and very good. Karl Urban (Star
Trek 2009) is Dredd Clint Eastwood talking, never takes his helmet off and
kills for he is judge, jury and executioner!!
The villain is Madeline Madrigal or short Ma-Ma (Lena Headey Game of
Thrones 300) is a gangster who owns Mega City and pushes a drug “Slo-Mo” and he
has to bring her down. She is
malicious!! It didn’t make money and I
don’t know why it is so good. It will
fare better on video.
