Free Music Notes for August Rush: Music From The Motion PictureFree Music Review: Good, but not quite a "Rush" Hit: 4 StarsI'd seen "August Rush" and enjoyed how the predictable movie played out. One knew the ending, but not how it was going to get there. I also enjoyed the music, which is why I ordered the soundtrack. As with many soundtracks these days, there are a lot of songs stuffed into the background and during the running of the credits which do little or nothing to help the movie along. They do, however, fill out a CD--it's a marketing thing. The American edition of the "Love Actually" comes to mind. It didn't even contain the two main love themes in the movie--thank God the internet made it possible to get the British version.
The "August Rush" CD does contain more of the actual music from the film and that makes it worthwhile and enjoyable, it's just that after hearing it, one wishes there was more in the movie and on the CD.
Free Music Review: Wonderful and Moving! Hit: 5 StarsI heard a couple of cuts from previews and the website and immediately bought the cd. I ended up buying the movie as well as I enjoyed it immensely. I love Kaki King's pieces but have to say August's Rhapsody is my favorite. Now that I've seen the movie, this piece is even more moving!
Free Music Review: SENSATIONAL !!! Hit: 5 StarsThis cd is awesome!!! Some of the best music I've heard in a while. The "musicianship" blew me away. I was pleasantly surprised at how talented Johnathan Rhys Meyers is as a musician (he has a fantastic voice!!!!). This is a great collection...one of my favorite soundtracks of all time.
Free Music Review: Music to Play All Day Long! Hit: 5 StarsWith the addition of John Ondrasik, Chris Botti, and John Legend, this soundtrack is worth every penny! Great listening experience. Definitely see the movie, and then buy the soundtrack. You will keep visualizing the story every time you play this. Wonderful story!
Free Music Review: August Rush Sensational Hit: 5 StarsI watched the movie and had to "rush" out and get the soundtrack. It is a perfect blend of music. I love it.
