Curtis B May 28 Love it! Watched it again on 10th anniversary in theater. See more rich k Mar 15 Fun , 80s nostalgia, for anyone who played an instrument in school or didn't, but liked 80s music. A film with a nice plot and a very uplifting finale which is rare in most films today. See more Matthew D @OceanSage 5d Sing Street is a wonderful Irish film about making a band with your friends. Irish director John Carney, of Once fame, crafts delightful songs and searing love in his coming of age musical comedy-drama Sing Street (2016). Ferdia Walso-Peelo is excellent as young Irish singer Conor Lalor. His beautiful singing, clean guitar playing, and sincere acting make Conor a very likable hero to follow. Lucy Boynton is gorgeous and moving as the sorrowful aspiring model Raphina. Jack Reynor is amazing as Conor’s concerned and hilarious stoner older brother Brendan. Kelly Thornton is fabulous as Conor’s older sister Ann, on her path to be an architect. Mark McKenna is phenomenal as the bunny loving Eamon. He’s a guitarist, songwriter, bassist, drummer, keyboardist, and all around musician. Ian Kenny is a riot as the cruel and insane school bully Barry. Ben Carolan is fun as the band’s manager. In all, Sing Street is a very charming 105 minutes of endearing characters and excellent music.

John Carney really knows how to create that feeling, and I might have to start a little John Carney marathon because his films seem perfect for moments like this. The atmosphere, the setting, and the way you become part of the band’s journey are all beautifully done. The songs are catchy, the characters are charming, and it’s just a genuinely feel-good movie. 4 stars. See more . @tamonegde Jun 22 This is called a movie. See more Mark A @RT25688434 Jun 19 I would give this film 10 stars if I could. I saw it in theaters in 2016 when it came out. I knew nothing of the movie and it was a whim theater visit with my wife where we just picked a film showing at the local cineplex. From the first moments this film caught me up in the characters who I really cared about which to me is the crux of what makes a film great. You need to give the audience a reason to care about the characters and Carney hit this one out of the park. The soundtrack is Oscar worth both with original music and known tracks. 100% banging soundtrack! The film was cast to perfection with special shout out to Ian Kenny who played the school bully "Barry". He made me believe he was actually that person in real life and THAT is acting my friends. Well done Ian 👏🏻. Conor's family history and dysfunction was built with care and thought into the film which brought the viewer in deep with all of them. Conor's older brother played by Jack Reynor was splendid. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! See more Read all reviews
