Really Surprised!

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

I enjoyed the young actress in the lead role. Felt connected with her, and wanted to watch her grow. What else can I say. I always wonder why some responded so negatively. oh well.

I tried watching this movie, without pausing or fast forwarding, but it was difficult. The lead Actress has a pretty good voice, if that's all she did through the entire movie, it may have saved it. But, no, she actually tried to act or tried acting through a poorly written script. The talent of the cast was there but the plot and scripted word was not. Had it been done by another Directer or Writer or even Producer, who knows how well it could have turned out. I hated every squeaky minute of this girl's poor attempt at acting. Good God, a toddler would have done better. The music chosen was great, Katy Segal was great and under used, but the rest was just awful. I feel bad for anyone who had anything to do with this script or movie, I'm sure they tried, but failed miserably. I don't think I've ever rated a movie this low but it just doesn't deserve much better.

This had to be one of the worst movies I've seen in the past ten years. In fact, I can't think of anything worse ever. Poor acting, poor script, very little to redeem it except for Katie Segal, who only had a very small part. The acting is sorely lacking, and the dialogue is poorly delivered much of the time. The ending lines (no spoilers here) are spoken by the main character in such a tone that it makes the bad even worse. Given the poor script, it was difficult to even give this movie a one rating. I can't understand how this movie was ever made. We tried to watch it on Pay Per View. Everyone gave up except me, but sadly, it got worse and worse. There's nothing to recommend it. I agree with the two other reviewers. It's not good at all. I wouldn't advise anyone to waste money on it since there's so many better movies available. I would almost label this unpleasant. Don't waste your time.

What.a.disappointment. Caught it on pay per view on a snow day. I'm embedded in the NY/NJ singer/songwriter community so I was looking forward to it. A 24-year-old working woman would never be able to afford an apartment like the one in this film without 10 roommates. Singer/songwriters who are overnight successes are very few and far between, and here we have a young woman lose her job at a corporate record company, return to her childhood home in Woodstock to lick her wounds and write songs, and voilà! instant success, with Katie Segal, a one-time musician herself, mentoring our heroine. The film is riddled with clichés (finding your boyfriend in the shower with another woman), bad acting, and ridiculous plot lines. That's about 90 minutes I won't get back.
