At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This one is going depend a lot on your taste. I personally didn't like it, but for old fashioned country lovers, I can see the appeal.There is a lot of musical talent in the movie and a lot of Christmas singing and a lot of guitar. A lot of the songs are heavily embellished with the personal styles of the artists.There is a good bit of humor. The story rambles a bit and the tone is a little down at times given the tragedies. I wasn't overly impressed with the acting. The father-son theme was strong and a bit of preaching Christmas is about Christ, yet it didn't beat you over the head with religion.

Angels Sing was a lovely, whimsical comedy-with-tear-jerker moments. Yes it was predictable, but it was a lovely Christmas movie which I am now going to add to our ever-increasing Christmas movie family extravaganza!Having all the musicians in the movie could have been a bit more prominent, (I would have loved to hear HC Jr show us some of his amazing Christmas singing), but nevertheless I loved the music, which was fresh and not the overdone usual Christmas classics.Give this movie a chance! I think you'll be hugging your family on the couch, and making up your own version of the 12 Days of Christmas!

I don't know enough superlatives to accurately describe this movie. It is a masterpiece.It's a perfect blending of the truth of Christmas with the joyous celebration of life, love and family.Some years back, I was dismayed when "the Grinch" found a way to copyright "It's A Wonderful Life" effectively removing it from it's richly deserved attention at Christmas time.IAWL seems to have been replaced by the 1983 film "A Christmas Story." I've watched and enjoyed ACS more than once. I like the film, but it's missing some key elements wonderfully portrayed in "It's A Wonderful Life." Namely, the value of the individual life and our relationship with God."Angels Sing" has, in my estimation, moved in to solidly fill that gap.Christmas impacts different people in different ways. For our central character, wonderfully portrayed by Harry Connick, Jr; it's not a time of celebration but a season filled with painful memories.His family wants to celebrate Christmas but he simply can't enter into it with them. Many of us, to one degree or another, carry emotional scars from the past. Our hero carries a big one.His story, and the films ending, creates all the heart filling satisfaction - and conveys all the truth - contained in IAWL.What's not to like? Humor, music, tragic loss and then life regained. This is indeed a story for the whole family. I hope to see it in widespread television replays in Christmas seasons to come.SPECIAL NOTE: Willie Nelson creates a GEM of a character in this film. Willie,I didn't know you had it in you. Thanks.Don't be concerned about the low rating. This is largely a result of the "drive-by shooting" reviews from people that never saw the film, or can't seem to figure out that a movie with "Angels" in the title might (horrors) have elements of Christianity in it. Surprise, surprise.
