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.

The Sapphires Movie Review: | |
| "The Sapphires" is a bit like a puppy you're trying to house break. It may have its bad cinematic moments but it's just so darn appealing that you have to love it. Charlie McCollum-San Jose Mercury News Why resist? -Village Voice While the fish-out-of-water story remains a little overused, the sweet soul music still provides a terrific hook. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger For the most part Aussie director Wayne Blair's feature debut is snappy and fresh. Sara Stewart-New York Post A solid, stirring song sung with more sincerity than polish. A.O. Scott-New York Times Despite some predictable facets, The Sapphires shines brightly. Claudia Puig-USA Today With O'Dowd in the lead, and a hit-soundtrack-ready selection of tunes from the Stax and Motown catalogs and more, The Sapphires is popcorn entertainment, with some earned laughs and a genuine heart. Kevin Jagernauth-The Playlist It helps that the leading actors are so skillful and appealing, beginning with Chris O'Dowd as a roguish Irishman who becomes the girls' manager... Leonard Maltin-Leonard Maltin's Picks You've seen this type of tale many times before...but the inspired-by-a-true-story Aboriginal slant adds interest, the actresses create unique characters and Chris O'Dowd really shines. Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews This familiar but supremely well-told and produced tale of the unlikely rise of an Aboriginal female pop group in the Vietnam War-era is feel-good entertainment at its best. Performances, solid script and great music all hit the high notes. Doris Toumarkine-Film Journal International It sidesteps the usual cliches. Fame and fortune matter less than the human connections that are fostered and repaired on this unlikely journey. Robert Levin-amNewYork Melodramatic and clichéd to a fault, The Sapphires is however elevated by winsome performances, particularly O'Dowd, and plentiful musically-driven charm. Simon Brookfield-We Got This Covered Not even sweet soul music can turn Vietnam circa 1968 into a feel-good trip, but "The Sapphires" tries its darnedest. Greg Evans-Bloomberg News The Sapphires understands intuitively that cheap tricks still work most of the time, and it is not without its silky, assured virtues-but originality is not one of them. Nathan Rabin-AV Club The Sapphires might pass muster as escapist fluff, but its pretensions of significance go woefully awry. Sam Adams-Time Out New York Wayne Blair isn't interested in historical complexity or subtext, just the seamless flow of Hollywood-style storytelling that lazily connects one musical number to the next. Glenn Heath Jr.-Slant Magazine Adorable, with a winning Chris O'Dowd turn. But overall, an unpolished gem Roger Moore-Movie Nation | |
