Inspired by a true story, THE SAPPHIRES follows four vivacious, young and talented Australian Aboriginal girls from a remote mission as they learn about love, friendship and war when their all girl group The Sapphires entertains the U.S. troops in Vietnam in 1968. Cynthia (Tapsell), Gail (Mailman), Julie (Mauboy) and Kay (Sebbens) are discovered by Dave (O'Dowd), a good-humored talent scout with a kind heart, very little rhythm but a great knowledge of soul music. As their manager, Dave books the sisters their first true gig giving them their first taste of stardom, and travels them to Vietnam to sing for the American troops. (c) Weinstein

Review For Movie The Sapphires
The harmonies they strike in this reality-inspired charmer are sweetly sublime.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post You could drive an Abrams tank through the film's plot holes, but you'll likely be too busy enjoying yourself to bother.
Michael Posner-Globe and Mail "The Sapphires" feels like a movie you've already seen, but it's nonetheless thoroughly enjoyable, like a pop song that's no less infectious when you know every word.
Jeff Shannon-Seattle Times "The Sapphires" sparkles with sass and Motown soul.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Sapphires is hardly a cinematic diamond mine. But this Commitments-style mashup of music and melodrama manages to entertain without demanding too much of its audience.
Linda Barnard-Toronto Star It's pure joy.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic Tries to dazzle itself but the shine comes off quickly, as this weakly structured story flees at the sight of any lingering dramatic conflict, preferring to turn history into a pleasant song-and-dance routine.
Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada) A unique and heartening look at four young women blossoming into mature adults as they enjoy a bout with success in the midst of a hard-fought war.
John Hanlon-Big Hollywood Quite possibly the least original movie you'll see this summer -- and one of the most enjoyable.
Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) The mood is so charming and the music so inspiring that you continually cut it a break.
Al Alexander-The Patriot Ledger By-the-numbers in every sense of the word, the film tracks a tried-and-true sort of triumph while featuring renditions of soul classics so bursting with energy and joy you won't care that the originality meter is leaning on empty.
Rick Kisonak-Film Threat Even when it seems contrived The Sapphires is a feel-good movie in the most positive meaning of that term, thanks to the Motown music and O'Dowd's cheeky charm. Like the Four Tops, I loved every sugar pie, honey bunch moment. I can't help myself.
Steve Persall-Tampa Bay Times Unfortunately, it has been turned into a routine and uninspiring movie, following a tired, old formula the entire way.
Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid A surefire crowdpleaser with all the ingredients for the type of little-movie-that-could sleeper success that Harvey Weinstein has nurtured in years and award seasons past.
Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com You've seen this story before, but never pulled off with so much joie de vivre.
MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher They can put a song across just like the Dreamgirls. What's not to like?
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express Exuberant but fairly formulaic.
Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle Doesn't always mix its anti-prejudice message and its feel-good nostalgia with complete smoothness. But despite some ragged edges it provides a reasonably good time.
Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion Director Wayne Blair -- another veteran of the stage show -- finds his footing during the film's many musical numbers.
Jay Stone-Canada.com Despite the prosaic plot and reserved approach taken by Blair, Briggs, and Thompson, it's tough to get cynical about such a warmhearted picture that strives to tell so uplifting a story.
