Might be sugary, but organic, whole, healthy sugar. Love is not dead even though most people want to kill it. Faith is not dead and music is everywhere. The movie is well done and hopefully it will offer an alternative view to those who only see s... around them.

It was an amazing and up lifting movie!!! It renews ones hope and faith in life and it makes you see how not to give up and to keep believing. I've always heard music in everything around me and within me but the most wonderful music I hear is in the sound of people's heart beats and in their smiles. Freddie and the rest of the cast were OUTSTANDING and I will watch this movie and listen to the CD over and over!!!! To everyone involved, THANK YOU!!!!

THIS MOVIE MOVED ME TO THE POINT WHERE EVER IF IM JUST THINKING ABOUT I CRY. IVE ALWAYS HAD A CONNECTION WITH MUSIC AND THIS MOVIE JUST TOUCHED ME SO MUCH. THE MUSIC WAS AUTHENTIC AND JUST RAPPED ITSELF AROUND THE WHOLE ENTIRE MOVIE. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A LONGER ENDING JUST TO SEE WHAT COULD HAVE TRANSPIRED BETWEEN AUGUST AND HIS PARENTS JUST TO SEE HOW WELL THEY CONNECTED.
