Listen to Your Heart (2010)

Very Cool!!!

Just perfect...

I wanted to but couldn't!

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Danny Foster (Kent Moran) is a starving artist in NYC. He's saving money as a waiter to buy equipment to make a music demo. Ariana (Alexia Rasmussen) is a deaf sheltered 21 year old under the control of her domineering mother Victoria (Cybill Shepherd). She decides to study music. Danny gives his number to her at the restaurant and they start dating. When her mother discovers the relationship, she tries to separate them.The young leads are photogenic and appealing. Cybill Shepherd comes into this movie too hard and doesn't have the nuance. She is an over-the-top controlling mother. There is a big difference between this indie and the best music indies like Once. The music is sub par. It is simple lackluster ballets. I don't know Kent Moran's musical history but it can't be that great. The plot is very sitcomy basically centers around a misunderstanding and then turns into a melodrama. This starts out with some promise and two very nice leads. It deteriorates as the movie gets into the second half.

Just saw "Listen to Your Heart" and I totally agree with stupididiotic from United States and with eloith-fay from Australia: "terrible lines and the music was just disgusting"; "Everything is so terribly clichéd and the acting isn't all that great";"The whole story line is juvenile and elementary";" It is clumsy, naive, overstated, lacks subtlety. The lyrics to the songs lack poetry, like reading dull prose.I found the acting unconvincing at best" One of the few positives about this movie is Alexia Rasmussen,she's such a sweetheart!But the fact that she smiles(and after that she sheds some crocodile/fake tears) in many scenes which are dealing with death...I find this disgusting and this is just one of the many reasons I believe this movie is of low quality.As for all of those annoying,inferior quality,sad singing scenes that pop up often during the movie..they are worthy of a better cause!Certainly not a masterpiece this one! But Alexia Rasmussen is so gorgeous to the point that it makes the movie seem not as bad as it is,actually.. All in all, I did not like this film.Don't waste your time watching it.

In this movie Listen to your Heart, I really enjoyed it for the most part as far as the romance between Danny and Ariana. However, I really hated how the mother interfered with their relationship. That was downright heartless. Plus, I also could not believe she defended that so-called charming gentleman over her daughter. That heifer got mad at her when it wasn't her fault. What kind of mother is that? Victoria guess what? That charming gentleman isn't so charming. It's a good thing that Ariana kicked that bastard in the you know what. He better be glad that she didn't have pepper spray on her. Overall as far as the heartless bitch of a mother, I felt like someone needed to stick a harpoon in her ass. I was super glad when she got slapped in front of everybody. She deserved that big time. Plus, when Ariana and her interpretor took a stand, that was awesome. Victoria guess what? They are done with you. You treat people the way you want to be treated. She treated her interpretor and her daughter like complete trash. Good thing to stand up for what you believe in. No one should have to take this mess. Plus, Ariana hardly talked with her voice throughout the movie. I thought I would never hear her voice. Anyways, when she and Danny finally got a chance to see each other again, he ends up with brain cancer. It really sucked when he died from it later on. And that's when I felt worse for Ariana. When she got a chance to see Danny again, it was over just like that. Basically, that shows that everything happens so fast. I think that they needed more time. That experience reminded me of my grandmother. She died of ovarian cancer. Her death occurred 5 days after I turned 18. I remembered the fact that sometimes my mother and her mother didn't always get along and sometimes I wouldn't get along with my grandmother either, especially when I was little. And when me and my mother finally let her back in our lives, it was over. I already had a feeling that after she was rushed to the hospital she wasn't going to make it because she had difficulties breathing. Like I told my mother it hurt me a lot more than it hurt her. I love you grandma Georgia. Anyways, I love the scene when Ariana put a flower next to Danny's grave and so did her mother because I believe that the mother realized that she made a mistake and that she had been selfish with her. After she gave her daughter her necklace back and hugged her, I think it was a sign that she has her own life to live now. I cried for 2 days based on that scene since I had flashbacks regarding my grandmother. After she died, we moved on with our lives as well.

This film is uniquely excruciating. Starring Cybill Shepherd as an over-the-top villainous mother, the story centers around an unlikely romance between a rich deaf girl and a poor waiter.Of course, you're thinking- aren't all unlikely-romance movies terrible? Isn't this par for the course? Oh no. It's much worse than you could imagine.The dialog falls into three categories- ridiculous 'heartwarming' stories (there's one about stealing duck eggs), cheesy one-liners, and Cybill Shepherd shouting insanity at other characters. While one character is deaf, the film could be improved if all characters were mute.Music is a recurring theme throughout the story, and the main character is supposed to be a talented singer-songwriter. This conceit wears thin, as the main character sings off-key, and the lyrics, such as they are, will make you beg for death.Yet the true fatal flaw of the film is the outlandish plot. Although set in reality, the events are too ridiculous by far. Whether it's Cybill punishing her daughter for resisting a rapist she sent (!!!), or a main character developing sudden onset incurable brain cancer, everything about the movie is unbearable. Only watch if you intend to make a drinking game out of this atrocity.
