Destined to be known as Whitney Huston's last film, which gives it something to hang its shingle on. Other than that this is a fairly by the numbers musical flick - some sisters want to sing, they sing, there's conflict, the slutty sister gets involved in drugs and a man who beats her, the good sister struggles to find her inner voice but once she does she's a star, mum (Whitney) is into God and worries about her girls...
It all feels very predictable, and badly needed something different (eg based on a true story, an unexpected twist) but there are some nice tunes, good looking women and stylish costumes.
