August Rush [Blu-ray] Review

For someone who loves romantic movies, this movie certainly delivers. I loved it, I simply loved it and I can't say it any clearer than that. I wanted to feel good, I wanted to feel joyful, I wanted to feel that magical something that I can't really explain and this movie gave it to me. The plot, the actors, the music, the journey is just right for me.

Here it is nearly 1:00 a.m. and I am so alert. Really I feel energized with that kind of "you can do it" energy. I love when a movie gives me something positive. It's like a sort of nourishment.

I've just finished watching this movie and I feel like I can watch it all over again. I am uplifted, energized, hopeful, creative, and just filled with something that is inspiring and encouraging. For some, what I say will sound hokey or whatever, but hokey people like me love this kind of movie. The kind that is alright to share with the entire family. Gosh, did this movie make me feel great. I simply loved it.

August Rush [Blu-ray] Overview

August Rush [Blu-ray] Specifications

Music has long been considered a universal language with the power to bring people together, but can the simple act of playing music possibly unite a child with a mother and father who live in two different cities and don't even know of the child's existence? Having shared one extraordinary night, classical cellist Lyla Novacek (Keri Russell) and Irish singer and songwriter Louis Connelly (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) were a union meant to be that was torn apart by circumstances and a protective father (William Sadler). After eleven years, both Lyla and Louis have given up performing only to find that they are unhappy and searching for a sense of fulfillment that will ultimately lead both artists back to music and performing. Evan (Freddie Highmore) is an 11-year old orphan who's grown up hearing music in everything around him and is convinced that his real parents want him and will find him with the help of music. Driven by his innate musical genius and a powerful compulsion to perform before the world, Evan runs away from the orphanage and is initially taken in by a street man known as Wizard (Robin Williams) who encourages his musical talent and renames him August Rush and, later, by a local priest who arranges for August to receive a Julliard education. August is a child prodigy who excels beyond even the wildest expectations and earns the opportunity of a lifetime--a chance to perform in front of an enormous audience in New York's Central Park. The question is; can his performance possibly reach the audience August really craves? While elements of this film are completely unbelievable (take August's instant prowess on the guitar or his immediate and sophisticated grasp of musical notation and musical theory), the message of the universality of music and the notion that "the music is all around us, all you have to do is listen" is both compelling and powerful. --Tami Horiuchi
