Dreamgirls
by Tracy Pepey
Cast: Jamie Foxx, Beyoncé Knowles, Eddie Murphy and Danny Glover
Release date: December 25
Why you should see it: Twenty-five years after first gracing the Broadway stage, Dreamgirls is back and dancing onto the big screen. With pop sensation Beyoncé as one of its dazzling leading ladies, Dreamgirls takes place in the 1960s and '70s and tells the story of a set of female backup starlets struggling to make it big. When their dreams become reality, we get a sense of the consequences that often accompany fame and fortune. With Tony Award Winner, Anika Noni Rose and American Idol: Season 3 powerhouse, Jennifer Hudson, rounding out the trio, this flick promises sheer harmony.
Box-office bottom line: A Broadway hit with a sensational cast is music to our ears.
