Awful!!

Rating: 1/10 (13 March 2008)

While it is interesting for the first few minutes, August Rush quickly unravels and becomes a horribly illogical movie. Johnatahan Rhys Meyers' Scottish accent thickens about halfway through the movie despite the fact he had been living in America longer. Robin Williams wastes himself in a "serious role." Trying to be an outlandish, captivating character, Williams suffers a poor script and should not have made this film because he now seems to be getting typecast for his "serious roles." Keri Russell having her baby given up for adoption without her ever knowing, even if she was in an accident, has to be impossible. Freddie Highmore is a great actor but should fire whoever it was who allowed him to waste his time making this. It was one of the worst I've seen in a while.
