August Rush

August Rush

By Ken Scott ( Contact )   March 18, 2008

At times I'm a bit hesitant to watch a movie my wife REALLY wants to see. She's very much into period movies like Pride and Prejudice, not to mention other basic "Chick Flicks", When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, etc. While I enjoy watching any of the Rocky movies or classics like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. So when she said she wanted to see a film called August Rush I said I'd watch it with her but I wasn't too excited about it. As it turns out, it's a very good movie that the whole family can watch. I won't giveaway too much but it's about an orphaned boy looking for his parents and the unique way that he connects with them. If you have some extra time this Spring Break be sure to rent it and watch it as a family, you won't regret it.

I work at a video store and when anybody asks for a movie that I thought was good, or if they have a movie that I didn't think was very good, August Rush is the first movie I'll recommend to everybody. It doesn't matter what age or sex they are, everybody should watch it.
