Review of Cadillac Records (2008) by Ashley H — 30 Apr 2009

I guess I just have to face it Hollywood is devoid of good dialogue writers and writers in general. [i]Cadillac Records[/i] should have been [i]Dreamgirls[/i] for the Blues, but the dialog was much too weak to support the tremendous talent that was on the scene.

Though the music was nice; it was the stories of the principals that should have shined but all they seemed to be able to do was curse and give off quick one liners. The acting could have been better.

[i]Cadillac Records[/i] is an okay film but not the greatest ever made.
