Movie Review by Kate
November 27th, 2007

Magical Moments

Two fellow artists and I saw the film together. We loved every magical moment of August Rush. From the cinematography to the musical score, screenplay and acting, we have only praise for the movie. Everyone -- young and old -- should see this spellbinding movie. Even the most hardened cynic is sure to have at least one, genuine tear in his eye by the time the film goes to black.

Visually teh film looked really good, but I just found it really hard to buy into the story.

You simply have to make room for a magical belief system. August goes after his dreams, regardless of what others think. "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." ~Henry David Thoreau
