Song Sung Blue
Weather you are or are not a Neil Diamond fan this was a real movie with real characters, tons of music and memories to last a life time.
“I’m not a song writer, I’m not a sex symbol, but I am an entertainer”
It was so refreshing to go to the movies pay $50+ and FINALLY see a quality film on the big screen that touches your soul and worth every penny.
Based on a true story this film will take you on a roller coaster ride of emotions and capture you throughout every work and scene you are about to see. Oh and no politics involved…..that alone was a blessing.
In a heartwarming and inspiring film, a man named Lightning and a woman named Thunder discover love and the opportunity to pursue their dreams by creating a tribute experience to the legendary musician Neil Diamond. As working-class individuals, the filmmakers subtly acknowledge the absurdity of their endeavor with a touch of humor and a hint of condescension. However, the film defies expectations, offering a delightful and uplifting experience that is sincere, dramatic, and refreshing.
Both Jackman and Hudson deliver exceptional performances, showcasing their remarkable vocal abilities and captivating stage presence. The supporting cast also delivers outstanding performances.
This film is truly great!
Based on a true story, two down-on-their-luck musicians (Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson) form a joyous Neil Diamond tribute band, proving it's never too late to find love and follow your dreams.
