No one came out looking good

Rating: 4/10 (14 February 2008)

Based on all the implausibilities i gave this a 3. Based on the fact that i managed to stay interested until the end i gave it a 6.
It is crap but it is watchable. I don't know if i've ever thought that about a movie before.
So in the end i plunked for a 4.5 score.
Story, orphan finds his parents who were unaware he was alive thru music. Kid ends up conducting the NY philharmonic 6 months after first learning to play music. cough cough......
bad but somehow i got to the end.
Other reviewers compared it to 'Oliver'. Oliver is classic, this story had to have been whipped up while micro-waving 2 minute noodles.
