I recently watched the movie "DreamGirls". Some parts made my hair stand on end, it was that good. However, I don't think it ever came to Korea. Did it?

I remember seeing it advertised at a cinema in Seoul, so I'm pretty sure it did.

I just saw it in my local video shop. Haven't seen it though. Eddie Murphy is pure genius.

Yeah several months ago. I was really underwhelmed though. The singing is good, but there's not enough plot to make a movie.

You should see it, especially if you like Eddie Murphy.

My friends got one of those songs as her ringtone. At least I think it's from dreamgirls..."I'm not at home in my own home" and so on. catchy tune.

Oh gawd that was terrible. I started watching it expecting a movie and ended up with a musical. Barf! As soon as someone broke out in a song mid-conversation, I knew I was in trouble. Stop, right click download, remove task and all files. Stupid arse thing.

She loved it...i was a bit so-so about it but wouldn't say it sucked, actually as far as musicals go it was one of the better ones...
