I like the soundtrack and think some songs are quite pretty. Especially "falling slowly".

I think there's maybe two songs that might pass, Falling slowly might be one of them. The rest was just really bland, despite his enthusiastic interpretation...

You have surprised me here. I am a fan of The Frames anyway so it was inevitable that I would like the soundtrack.

It is really good! And sadly no... I went to see it when I was visiting my friend in New York. It is only in limited release right now.

F*cking AMAZING. May be Disney's finest moment in a long long time.

I thought Pixar were running out of ideas when Cars came out, but then they make an incredibly original film like Ratatouille and now this, a post appocaylptic romantic comedy... with robots. I love it.

I had high expectations for this movie but I still didn't expect it to wow me or move me as much as it did.

Just watched Smiley Face and it was excruciatingly funny at parts.

On a side note, I saw 'Australia' and it was quite good - but 2 and a half hours long! And I'm pretty sure 99.99% of people outside of Australia would not like it at all. But I'm Australian and I enjoyed it. I love Bazz Luhrmann and his attempts to bring romanticism back into cinema.

I love All That Jazz... Scheider is a great actor. I think the film is somewhat experimental for it's time, where it's cut and whatnot. For example, every morning with the symphony music when he pops his pills and shizz, "Showtime." Wonderful movie.

I wasn't actually that impressed with Scheider, but noone can direct a dance number like Fosse. It's certainly one of the best musical films I've ever seen, but also rather a difficult watch given its subject matter...I loved the smokey dance number, that was just mindblowingly good.
