SPARKLE 2012 (THE MOVIE) REVIEW
August 17, 2012
By Ladyglen
I unexpectedly liked this remake of Sparkle. Not as much as the original but, I didn’t expect to like it as much as the original which by the way, is on my Favorites List. Although I pitched a bitch at the casting, it wasn’t as bad as I expected. I would have loved to see more of the strong willed, black and proud ‘Dee’ character, played by Tika Sumpter but, I liked what little I did see of her. I thought all the actors did a good job in their respective roles. The movie stars Jordin Sparks as the titled character ‘Sparkle’, Carmen Ejogo as ‘Sister’, Tika Sumpter as ‘Delores’ (the three sisters who are the focus of the movie about a girl R&B singing group), Derek Luke plays ‘Stix’ their manager, Mike Epps as the abusive ‘Satin’, Whitney Houston as the girls mom ‘Emma’ and Michael Beach as ‘Reverend Bryce’, whom I did not recognize until the ending credits.
My only um...complaint (for lack of a better word at the moment) is the change in the script with the ‘Sister’ and ‘Satin’ characters. The movie could just as well have been named Sister based on that change.
I give this movie 3 out of 4 Stars void of the urge to be viewed again in the theatre, which is what I often do when I really enjoy a movie.

By Ladyglen
CHICAGO - William Balfour, the only person charged in the murders of Jennifer Hudson’s mother, brother and nephew back in October 2008 and who was convicted of the crime in May 2012 by a jury of his peers, was sentenced yesterday to life in prison without the possibility of parole by criminal court judge Charles P.

After denying Balfour’s motion for a new trial, Judge Burns sentenced Balfour to three (3) consecutive life sentences, one for each of the murders and an additional 120 years for burglary, kidnaping, home invasion and auto theft. William Balfour is expected to spend the rest of his life in prison.
