All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Very good soundtrack. That's just one reason why you should watch this movie and there's many more. Fun, fluid movie, about love and support basically, between brothers and between teenage boy and girl with a dream.

What a beautiful feeling it is when you follow your dreams... Sing Street follows this maxim to its fullest as a notion takes shape in the form of a band during the 80's music vid heyday in Ireland. As his world crumbles around him, his parents are breaking up, navigating a new school replete w/bullies & despotic Catholic figureheads, our hero, w/the unflinching support of his stoner brother, starts a band w/a bunch of fellow pariahs hoping just to shoot a music video to impress the older girl who has caught his eye but what he gains is self-confidence, wisdom beyond his years & also a knack for writing catchy songs. Not a bad trade-off for this heartwarming, inspiring yarn that tickled me delighted & left me w/a healthy dose of nostalgia.

Amazing work. Music is a beautiful thing and this film shows an example of how it cannot be repressed or contained, how it is a tool for reforming people, and coping with situations.And art is an attractive thing. Finally, Rest in peace to Vera Nwabuwe who played Ngig's mum. I was sad to find out she's passed in real life <3

Güzel filmdi..Aşkın insana neler yaptıracagını anlatıyor. Oyunculukları da çok beğendim. Doğallardı. The movie was beautiful. The second movie can be taken. It'Il be more beautiful. I think the "Rock Star" movie came.I had a great desire for the second in that film. And in that movie is a cult film for me..
