I love this movie!

Not only 20 minutes in and this film had me hooked. The reason I watched this was to prepare for an audition because the song I picked was Falling Slowly and it was so beautiful on it's own, but to understand the character behind the song, I decided to give the film a watch. Now there are very few movies that I consider to be life-changing, but this may be it. It's definitely one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Although amateur in filming, the writing of the two main characters is so well done it was hard not to relate and feel for them. I'll remember this with great fondness.

So, I was watching Shameless and fell in love with Gus (Steve Kazee). I started to check other work he did and I stumbled upon Once, the broadway show. I listened to all of the songs and clips regarding the show. I then started listening to Glen Hansard's songs. Something about that music just drove me to finding out what was behind it all. I finally saw this movie and I was blown away. What a fantastic and brilliant film. Two lost souls who share a similar passion and find their ways home through it. I am so in love with every thing related to Once. I'm so glad that Steve Kazee had a fantastic booty which lead me to this movie!! 😍

Not only does this movie fail as a romantic movie, it fails especially as a movie that uses music at its base. Why? Because it’s commercial crap. The only good thing about it is the comedy. Everything else is like drinking soap water, it’s annoying and leaves a bad aftertaste. Critics think this is not a hollywood style movie? HA! This IS the new hollywood! You didn’t think things would just stay the same and repeat themselves, did you? If they did we’d still have movies being made with the 1950s style. Critics, IMDb top 100, viewers, all cheering for commercial crap. What has this world come to? If you want a true masterpiece of a movie that revolves around music, watch Amadeus. At least that one has reasons to make you laugh and cry and laugh.

Clearly I am behind the times with this... "Once" was a late night, HBO, nothing else is on or that I have not already seen. What an absolute treasure of music and pure raw attraction. While it may be easy to determine that this is not a big budget film, what does come through is a big heart... the interaction with the actors, the raw music... I am a big fan - albeit 9 years after.

Boring. Pointless. Waste of time and money. I don't understand why so many people love this movie. Only rent it if you need something to put you to sleep. Monotonous music. Every song sounds the same.

The soundtrack in this move is great. My first International Travel was to Ireland and this move brought back excellent memories of how musically inclined that country is and all of my experiences be an observant of the soulful music that surfaces out of Ireland. Although all the characters were not Irish, it is the people of Ireland that inspire and encourage the generational spirit of what this movie portrays. I think this film was lovely in the way it was produced and filmed. Marketa Irglova is a beautiful woman with such grace. I would buy this soundtrack. This film is worth watching.

What a stunning film. Don’t know why I waited years to see it. The music is truly magnificent.
Tooth pulling without novakane

I was very excited to watch this movie after reading the synopsis and I was extremely disappointed. The songs were just okay with no real catchy tunes, the acting was horrible and the story had a lousy ending. Additionally, it was some of the worst directing I’d ever seen including one scene that stood out where they where shooting from outside of a window and you saw almost all reflection. There was little emotion on the part of the characters and some of the music scenes went on mercilessly repeating the same verse over and over and over. The best way I can sum it up is going to the dentist and having every tooth pulled with no novakane for 2 hours. I haven’t seen the Broadway performance but I would have to assume it would be a whole lot better to have lasted this long.

Came to this movie through a circuitous route, but my wife and I were taken by its beauty and softness. Both the acting and camera work had a reality that I have never seen matched. Not overbearing. The camera let the actors do their work with long scenes. The love displayed will be recognized — not perhaps by twenty-somethings or younger — but those who have or have had the experience of contentment and appreciation of others.
