Carney's story is pretty basic and perfunctory and in all honestly wouldn't look out of place in a much lesser film, so it's credit to him that everything else in 'Sing Street' is so on-point that it's not an issue. The music is good, the casting is spot on, the performances admirable and it's stylish too. A grown up take on a teenage story with some real nuggets of excellence strewn throughout.

A wonderful coming of age musical that will make even the cold-hearted smile! Director John Carney should continue to make musicals indefinitely (he also made Once and Begin Again) There's a bit of suspension of disbelief in just how a bunch of rag tag 15 year olds can make such good music off the cuff, but it works well. I loved how each song was inspired by what new music the main character was listening to at the time. The music video for Riddle of the Model was so fucking spot on 80's.

For decades musicians have shared why they got into music in the first place & they always say the same 3 things: they wanted the girls; they wanted to escape; & "music saved my life". Other films may have captured some of that, but there's never been a film that better conveys all of that & how profoundly exciting it feels to be so young & seemingly helpless, but slowly discover that you're capable of having a power you could scarcely imagine before.

Had me right up until the overly grandiose ending. Incredibly easy to fall in love with this movie, as it mostly does everything right. Actually, when Cosmo was in his Robert Smith phase- I probably would've given this a 95. A few missteps being the disturbing priest/principal sideplot and the aforementioned sore-thumb finale. Might be the first Carney movie to warrant a sequel.

All musicals should be done this way. Much easier to get invested in as opposed to people randomly breaking into song (that does happen once with dance, but it’s not real, so it’s okay). The 1980’s Dublin setting is charming, as are the characters (especially McKenna’s Eamon, who I would’ve liked to see a bit more of). The pacing is quick, and the story, while a bit overly simple and lighthearted, is really enjoyable. The music is actually pretty nice as well. Needed more Gillen though

A sweet coming-of-age fable with instantly hummable tunes, SING STREET makes its easy to root for its plucky band of Irish teen outcasts. (In some cases, the '80s pastiche covers are even better than the real songs that serve as their templates.) The film takes itself too seriously at times--what musician doesn't?--and is tangled by a third act that slouches, rather than strides, into romantic fantasy. But I'll be damned if I couldn't keep my heart from warming and my toes from tapping.

Real fun throwback. The songs are catchy as hell and the presentation of 80s Dublin is just so well realized. Not to mention the humor and some solid performances (Brendan being the stand out). Only real problem was sustaining the story, which petered out by the end. Overall, one of the year's best.

I don't think I've seen a more surprisingly great film than Sing Street. I expected an endearing music-driven film, but there's so much more than that here. This is a very well-made drama with some incredible child performances and a very believable script. The characters are well fleshed-out as well, and the music might be some of the best in any film, with all the numbers being very catchy and well-integrated. It is a familiar storyline, but the execution is so perfect that it makes up for it.

Great, fun stuff, right up until near the end where it couldn't maintain its momentum. Jack Reynor excels as big brother Brandon, and Lucy Boyngton is a real scene stealer. Excellent use of music, with the best songs being originals (esp. Riddle of the Model and Drive It Like You Stole It). When has that ever happened before--but then I'm not a big fan of Duran-Duran etc.

Carney brilliantly captured bleak melancholic romance in Once a little over a decade ago, and this time does the same but with enough infusion of whimsy and teenage idealism to make a Happysad movie that's more happy than sad. Give this a try even if it's "not your kind of movie," if it softened my crusty curmudgeonly heart, and it'll do the same to you.

Not John Carney's best work (that's still Once) but this is still excellent. Great performances, especially with kids acting beyond their years, and fantastic music. Some parts do play like a fantasy sequence and I do think that's the point. The older brother character is an older brother we all need and played to perfection. It's a pity it didn't get any Oscar attention as it certainly deserved some love.

This movie takes an extremely well-worn premise and, rather than try too hard to be creative with it, instead decided to fill every aspect of it with genuine heart and warmth, to great success. Yeah, you could probably predict the story beats pretty accurately from the get-go, and that might detract from your appreciation a bit. You can also generally predict what's gonna happen when you hang out with an old friend, but there's a reason you keep hanging out with them.

It's a real treat to get a fresh, fun and exciting 1980s throwback film about kids forming a post-punk band -- and that's why Lukas Moodysson made "We Are the Best" two years ago. "Sing Street" on the other hand is a string of stale cliches, relegating the girl back to trophy status among its many stereotypes. The retro songs are quite authentic and the cast is talented, but the script is completely out of tune with real life.

Sing Street is of the romantic-musical genre that I usually despise; but given its widespread acclaim, I put aside my biases and somewhat enjoyed the film. Carney captures the 80's sense of opportunism and openness really well. The acting is good, as are the diegetic musical numbers which fit the style and period nicely. The protagonist and his friends didn't do much for me, but I found his brother (played by Reynor) and his crush (Boynton) much more compelling. Upbeat, but not ground-breaking.

Light and fun music film which takes place in 80's Ireland and should please fans of of the era as the soundtrack is filled with songs from bands like Duran Duran and The Cure with the fictional band also mimicking their music videos and style. The original songs are good too. As a whole, It's a bit too predictable and safe to rise to another level, and limits of the budgets are occasionally distracting.

There was very little doubt going in that I'd end up liking this. It's a fun, nostalgic semi-musical from the writer/director of Once (2007). The story is simplistic and fairly formulaic, but the sincerity about the setting, both time and place, seemed very genuine. It had a bunch of good songs, both original and from the time period. The character were pretty likable, and the young actors were quite good. I wouldn't say it was overly memorable, but I enjoyed watching it, for sure.

Sing Street is an enjoyable coming-of-age story set in 80s Ireland. Through the eyes of teenager Conor and his band we experience the pop and rock music of the day, and also catch a little bit of romance. The young cast are exceptional, the songs catchy, and the mood uplifting. My second favourite John Carney film.

W4E2P2S1V1M2A2R3. Right up there with Whiplash in the category of musical films that floored me. Yes, it was the Young-Adult version of Once, but I thought it even improved on its PG-13 predecessor, in music and charm and story. Lucy Boynton as Raphina is heartbreaking, and everyone else is solid. The song-writing scene for "Up" made me so regretful of all the young jam bands I never saw through.

Carney carved Sing Street out of his own life growing up in Dublin, circa 1985, and the result is tender, tough and totally irresistible. Carney is too hardnosed for easy sentiment. He never goes soft. He makes us aware of the necessity of reaching higher and the pain that comes with it. Call it a junior Commitments if you want, but Sing Street goes its own way.

From that moment, when they go away from the songwriting montage - and show her taking off her make up, turning her into a normal and yet lovable 16 year old girl - from that moment on: I was in love with this movie! And when the brother celebrates that they made it around the corner I was lost in bliss. What a wave of a movie!

Very enjoyable at first glance, thanks to its fresh-faced young leads, catchy pop tunes, and affectionate tribute to growing up in the 80s and being a pale imitation of your cool musical idols. In the long run, the story and character arcs feel too formulaic, and a lack of original ideas sees it degrade into a generic teen romance / coming-of-age vehicle. But, the film's high notes are really high, and weighing it up, they more than make up for the shortfall in drama.

Despite some clumsily written hardships involving dreams never lived and such, this is again a fantasy for Carney, who for a director supposedly interested in music only seems to like the magical heartache and subsequent uplift of power ballads. But if that tendency results in more scenes like the sublime "promised land" finale at sea, then I'll stop insisting that the kids' band really should have turned into The Psychedelic Furs.

One of the better coming of age teen movies to come out in quite some time. The acting and music is quite excellent although the script seems a bit weak. The girl isn't much more than a trophy with baggage and the movie left a few opportunities to further explore the protagonist or comment on the nature of mimicry in a budding artist. Also kind of funny just how quickly he became an accept that he has quite a bit of natural talent. 'Drive It Like You Stole It' daydream sequence was the highlight

Fantastic music, even better hair cuts and everything flies by oozing style. A genuine heartwarming crowd-pleaser. Special mention to Jack Reynor's Brendon - "Do you see that guitar? I used to be able to play that guitar well. I used to ride hot girls. I could run 200 meters faster than anybody in my school. You're the youngest. You get to follow the path that I macheted through the jungle that is our mad family."

Unfortunately, SS is a movie that can't maintain what made it fantastic in the first half or so, maybe more. God damn this had a lot of charm and some really great jokes, along with some wonderful songs like Drive It Like You Stole It. And then it becomes a typical tale, but that's not even my problem: it becomes ridiculously cheesy to the point of hammy, and because of that the ending felt like a C movie. It tried to undo good will that it built. I do love Reynor as brother Brendan.

I loved it up to the first music video they filmed. The song and the music video were just 80s, but after that it completely fell apart for me. You would think that a movie about an imaginary band in the 80s would make music that sounds like it came from the 80s? But no, they all sounded like they could’ve come out in the last decade. But the movie isn’t as bad as I make it out to be. The cinematography was top-notch, with beautiful colors and excellent oners and costume design was even better.

It's just a crime how its last 30 minutes are so nice -- a Back to the Future homage through a 50s ball, a rock concert at the school's auditorium, the final escape to London -- and inspiring about every teen's everlasting dream: to have a band, get the girl thar you've suffered so much for, having a shot to make dreams come true. It just takes forever to actually start, despite some charisma in this band-to-band metamorphosis -- from Duran Duran to The Cure and so on.

A well made movie for sure, with catchy music as its selling point, but it uses so many teen movie tropes and cliches to support its plot that none of the characters besides maybe Boynton's feel human. That, plus the continual use of heady dramatic subject matter which is immediately completely ignored and forgotten (sometimes with a fanciful pat resolution, often none at all) left a real sour taste in my mouth, making it more of a feel bad movie than the feelgood piece it tries so hard to be.

School of Rock via 1985 Ireland, a funny appreciation of 80's pop and rock, John Carney delivers another charming little film. He doesn't deliver on all fronts - no secondary character beyond the girlfriend is developed. The music video aspect disappears and the purpose of the band's work becomes unclear. The last 3rd is overlong. But in the end, its forgivable, because this movie is about joy. This gets an extra point because you walk out feeling happy in the end.

Formulaic sure, but god did it make me happy. A beautiful reflection on music and the power of creation.

Decent music, likeable lead, some charm. Almost derailed by weird ending and (especially) unbearably obnoxious elder brother/'mentor' character.

As should be expected from a Carney film the music is very good, and Sing Street is brimming with some inspiring 80s fashion and aesthetics, but unlike, say, Once, Sing Street suffers from a predictable and formulaic feel-good film plot (and it also suffers from a terrible case of Mad-Pixie-Dream-Girl-itis.)

Alternately charming and cloying in much the same way the band goes from spot-on Duran Duran pastiches to horrific James Blunt dreck seemingly overnight.

An enjoyable, light, and safe success. Rides the styles of New Wave in place of a compelling narrative, but does so well.

2. Cute and nostalgic. John Carney's masterpiece is still Once, however.

80s nostalgia in music and style. Bangs that hard. A little phoney, but the characters are likable and the mood positive in despair. The slow song didn't do it for me so I had to deafen it with The Fall's "Psycho Mafia". That aside Sing Street (2016) is a pleasant film filled with naïve hope.

Unpopular opinion: the music was not so memorable and the story was forgettable.
