August Rush
Very Good 17 Points 2007

I liked this movie. A bit campy/fairy-tale for some, but for people who really appreciate the affect music can have, it will tug at some emotional strings within you. Freddie Highmore does a good job as the orphan. It was interesting to watch Robin Williams in a quasi-bad-guy-yet-good-in-a-way ch…

Great 17 Points 2007

I’ve always just been a casual fan of the Who — I have lots of song favorites, but I’ve never known that much about the band itself. This documentary does a great job of putting you in touch with the band, its history, its music, and especially the personalities of the members Roger Daltrey, Pet…

Camp Rock
Very Good 17 Points 2008

The Jonas Brothers(focasing on Joe Jonas) stared in this movie about a camp in witch kids showed their talent in dancing, singing, and music producing. A clear Disney movie. Although adults may like this movie, kids would enjoy it most. (Review by Katherine)

Dreamgirls
Very Good 17 Points 2006

Beyonce, Jaimie Foxx, Eddie Murphy, Danny Glover, Jennifer Hudson – need I add more? There were more. A terrific cast did a great job of giving us a glimpse into the life of soul-sisters in the 60’s. It was a little weird seeing Eddie Murphy singing like James Brown, but the unexpected musical …

Ray
Very Good 17 Points 2004

I really enjoyed Jaime Foxx’s version of the great Ray Charles. The movie was as entertaining as a biopic gets. Jaime’s acting great – he seemed to become Ray himself. I simply forgot that I was watching an actor and not the legend. The movie surrounds itself with Ray’s wonderful music and give…

Really Great 17 Points 2006

He rocks you with grooving new songs and hits you with classics that still raise goosebumps…. I haven’t heard a better revival of his style of music. Although I didn’t like all the songs on the DVD, please do stick it through — because there are some riffs you won’t want to miss….. As for me…

Rush: Beyond th...
Very Good 17 Points 2010

For you uninitiated (or unaware), Rush is a band that continues to produce ever evolving kick-ass progressive rock after 35 years, has 24 consecutive gold and platinum albums (trailing only The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Aerosmith), gets shunned by critics, yet continues to sell out big stadiums…

Good 17 Points 2003

If you are a Pink Floyd fan, then this movie should be on your to-see VuList. A thorough journey in to the band-member’s viewpoints on the music they created. It is very apparent that these guys know there wasn’t much they could do to top that album, and that album defines them even to this day….

Rock Prophecies
OK 17 Points 2011

Constant name dropping and a self-serving biography about rock photographer Robert Knight’s pursuit of great guitarists is a little off-putting at times, but I’ll have to admit seeing footage and hearing stories of some of rock’s greats was darn interesting. Just some of the names we are t…

OK 17 Points 1975

The only reason this movie was interesting at all was for its concert footage. The interviews were mostly self-serving, with some exceptions when the band talked about Freddie Mercury or the recluse drummer Roger Taylor. The band was amazing. Their style isn’t for everyone, but the musicianship -…
