A Disappointing Continuation
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Brilliant and super charming! Some comedy and musical together...
It was a masterpiece, a true work of art. The outstanding animation and top class voice acting made the film seem alive and real. I went to see it in 3D and I felt like I could sing along to various songs such as "Over and Done With" and "Let's Get Married". This magical world is a place that I would love to live in, if only it were real. A family favourite movie that all of my 34 children and I watch at Christmas.
I love this film can't stop watching it, also can't stop singing the songs in my head the acting is first class the music too, the story along the way is touching, get the hankies out its got everything you want in a movie it makes you laugh it makes you sad and above all it makes you happy in one word 'Wonderful' it's best to see it 2-3 times to see what you missed the first time! I have watched about 20 times now and counting!! Jane Horrocks gives a marvellous performance as Jean and Peter Mullan was superb but all the cast were fantastic too it's a pity there aren't more films of a similar nature to this instead of all these 'Super Heroes' film noir. The Director Dexter Fletcher who is also an actor needs commending and I will be following him on what he does in the future either acting or directing his latest film being Eddie the Eagle! 10/10
I should hate this. I thought I would. Take a band whose music is real. A band who don't do poxy love songs. Who do great Scottish songs of independence. A band I admit to loving. Now you try to shoehorn their songs into a musical. It is going to suck. Isn't it?Actually no. No need to critique whats wrong with this movie. Everything is. It sucks. Its terrible.I loved every minute. Its not Momma Mia (thank God) Its not Easy Rider. But it is a really enjoyable movie. Loads of fun. Bright, lively and well worth a watch. This is the perfect date movie. If you, like me, don't like chick flicks. If its too early to watch "The unbearable lightness of being". Then this is a great option. It's just good fun.
