    Great story but not a great finish.

    I watched the film once before and I love the story line about a boy and his parents coming together at the end. Robin Williams plays one of his dark characters and the young boy was portrayed with great skills. I would have liked a better closure for the family story line to make the film memorable. The price for the DVD was great, the musical contrasts between mom, dad and the conductor makes for easy viewing.

    It was not half bad.

    The product had freezing issues at the beginning of the video. But we kept restarting it. It finally kept playing until the end of the video. I tried it on two different DVD plays and they each had issues playing it continuously without it freezing. Please check your product to make sure it plays on the DVD player before shipping. Thank you.

  • I Know You're Out There Somewhere (Moody Blues, 1988)

    A musical delight that might require the suspension of the laws of nature but what do we know about how the mind and the world around us really work. A true romantic adventure that my wife and I have already watched a number of times.

  • August Rush.

    This is an outstanding movie, although it starts out very slow, it is surly able to win any ones heart. It was recommended by one sister, that watched it and bought the movie, and then she recommended to me. It's a keeper.

  • Interesting how August got his name. Watch and find out.

    The story line is heartwarming. Even though there was a music variety that still brought a family together. Loved the music throughout the movie.
