Review For Sparkle

Sparkle shamelessly piles on the clichés, but it's an entertaining ride throughout.
Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com

Noteworthy only for featuring Whitney Houston's last screen appearance.
Bruce Diones-New Yorker

Sparkle is an assembly of parts and pieces from other, better movies - an overly familiar jumble of clichés mashed together.
James Berardinelli-ReelViews

"Sparkle" isn't blindingly original but it delivers solid entertainment, and despite the clichés I was never for a moment bored.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times

Anyone who has seen Dream Girls, What's Love Got To Do With It? or even The Doors will find themselves in familiar (if inferior) territory here ...
Courtney Shea-Globe and Mail

It's nice that "Sparkle" honors the memory of Motown's heyday; if only it could have lived up to those standards.
Tom Long-Detroit News

This is the second most embarrassing thing to happen to Whitney Houston this year.
Eric D. Snider-Pajiba

Wallowing in melodrama, the film's sole highlight is Whitney Houston's supporting turn in it.
John Hanlon-Big Hollywood

Whitney Houston's vibrant, final performance adds poignancy to this likeable, breezy remake of a familiar tale.
Ed Gibbs-The National

it is impossible not to think of the singers real life rise and fall. Whitney Houston's face does not disguise the descent. You can see the tracks of her tears. She looks a lot older than her 48 years.
Brian Henry Martin-UTV

An energetic cast and some terrific music make up for the rather hackneyed plot of this Dreamgirls-style drama. Remade from a 1976 film, the story is that familiar trajectory of musicians who achieve fame only to fall into a string of ugly problems.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com

Trite and predictable but the musical numbers have heart and there is a poignancy in seeing Houston one last time.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express

No one could make a case for this being other than fairly ordinary, but it is at least enjoyable.
Derek Malcolm-This is London

Some sparkle and plenty of motion.
James White-Empire Magazine

Sparkle isn't Dreamgirls - but fans of schmaltzy showbiz fairytales should enjoy it.
Ken McIntyre-Total Film

... transfers the 1976 cult hit from 1950s Harlem to '60s Detroit with faults and virtues intact.
Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review

'Sparkle' is a solidly, if not imaginatively, made showbiz tale that might have escaped notice had it not been for that fact that one if its stars, singer Whitney Houston, died after she completed her work in it.
Dan Lybarger-KC Active

While most people will focus on Sparks' acting debut or on Houston's touching final performance ... , the real fire comes from Ejogo's sultry and tough-minded performance as the down-but-never-out Sister.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune

It isn't "Dreamgirls" but it is worth watching for Sparks, Ejogo and most of all Whitney.
Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com

Overcomes its overdone 'rising star' formula with surprising drama, decent songs,breakout performances and a haunting swan song of Whitney Houston.
Bruce Bennett-Spectrum (St. George, Utah)

Sparkle follows a music-industry hopeful getting her shine on, but there's a more interesting movie percolating along the edges of the frame.
Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle

A few exceptional musical performances don't mitigate an otherwise stale melodrama.
John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)

Sparkle never really gets big. It pretends to.
Norm Schrager-Paste Magazine

The story takes melodramatic turns that threaten to stray into camp, and newcomer Jordin Sparks as the reserved titular character doesn't have the finesse to avoid it.
Monica Castillo-Boston Phoenix
