Eddy Murphy is facking brilliant in this, so too Jennifer Hudson - everything elseis wet wet wet. Its about 30 minutes too long, the scrpit is awful, production values cheap to middling, its as if they decided to film a cabaret act. Seriously, I wanted my money back. Was there a film so unfairly hyped?


calling justine Adegor & Jeniece Adegor from Woolwich, South London..where are ya?

NOT being rude

but a "friend" suggested, maybe nest time download a hyped film...judge for yourself

if its brilliant, grab some girlfriends and watch it a second time (sponsoring it)

and watch it on a bigger screen with dolby surround sound..(shud be even better)

and you might catch bits you missed before!

just a suggestion

if its crap now...just deleate the file..thus saving you the over priced cinema prices.



just a suggestion from ....an anoymous sourceconfused3


I beleive that who I am is enough..........

Hey CQ long time eh?

downloading dreamgirls is problematic since the producers flooded the net with so many fake copies that stop at 92% or somethingand all the china man road copies i seen are very poor.

I thought it was really good actually, Beyonce wasn't awful but I stil think she should stick to singing, don't think acting is her forte. Jennifer hudson was amazing. i know that Beyonce is the international superstar etc but I really think that she should have been recognised as the lead actress because her part was much bigger and her acting was much better. I'd deffinatly get the soundtrack for her voice alone.

Ha Ha,

I took a roll of the dice and brought Dream girls and Blood diamonds from a Coolie/opps! an oriental in a car park

dream girls was a good quality one and Blood Diamonds filmed in a Cinema although nobody stood up half way through. Not bad for £4.00niceone.gif

Lol, everyone at my cinema felt it necessary to clap everytime someone sang a damn song (except when beyonce sang listen... about 6 people clapped then lol), and at the end of the film. I swear, only black folk clap at a damn cinema!

This is so suprising because I thought the clapping thing would only go down in the states clp)so it's good to hear folks are doing it here too ! I heared Jennifer hudson is brilliant in this film and will move u with her voice. Specially singing 'I am telling you' . I want to see this now... Jennifer has been winning mad awards for this film
