Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

zif ofoz I can't not not like this movie! The story is old Hollywood love story musical told in a 21st century setting.This flick has a unique 'look' and 'style' which I personally enjoyed watching. And the plot/story is straight out of the studio days of Hollywood in the 1930's. In my opinion the director pulled it all together and created a highly individualized movie.Yes it is slow at times but the charm keeps your attention and interest. And at the end you feel entertained and that you have seen something that is not your usual mass audience movie.I gave 7 stars because some scenes are just too involved and lengthy - example - when Nate becomes depressed and self destructive - it's a bit overdone.

wittachick I truly like Amy Adams, I think she is a dynamic and versatile actress - but I'm not so sure who told her she could sing! In Enchanted her singing was tolerable because her character needed to have a child like innocence to her voice - so letting go of a note here & there was totally fitting.However she is no where near talented enough as a vocalist to pull off a character who is supposed to be believed as a legitimate Jazz singer! Who ever the casting director - and producers were must have all been tone deaf! The story and use of the music in the movie was unique - however the casting was so pour, that even the fact that it was low budget would have been OK if better actors had of been cast!

drjoseph I'll admit it, I'm a sucker for romantic jazz standards, I'm a sucker for films about aspiring musicians, and I'm a sucker for Amy Adams. So this little film was a gift straight from heaven for me. The acting was quite good, the plot, though a bit out there, was still believable enough to carry the story to its sweet conclusion, and Amy Adams was Amy Adams and that's enough for me to give it nine stars. This plot line is not new, in fact it's as much of a standard as the songs which permeated the script; boy meets girl, boy and girl fall in love, boy loses girl, boy gets girl back. If not for the casting, which to my mind was superb, this film could have been a dud. But the lead characters were just understated enough to be lovable and the music was nothing short of divine. No steamy interludes, no weird twists of fate, no ridiculous situations, just a clever little interlude to brighten up your viewing pleasure. Thank you all who brought this little gem to the screen.

stevenmorgan94 I rented this movie because it supposedly takes place in a jazz club -- you know, those hip, cool places you might stumble upon late on a Saturday night. Well, there's not one ounce of "cool" in this ridiculous movie. The score is goofy, the original songs are awful, both lead actors' singing is continually off-key (to be kind) and unprofessional at best, the plot is no more complex than "boy meets girl," the acting is laughable, and the only decent cinematic moments are the stock footage scenes. The jazz club scenes feature sophomoric dialog smothered by overly-busy organ music. This Joey de Francesco should keep his day job (unless his day job is helping with movie scores). Is it possible to not only get my four dollars back, but have my therapy sessions paid for as well? This movie, interestingly enough, is so bad, you might want to watch it. Sort of like driving by a bad accident -- you just have to look at least once. Just get the ear plugs ready!
