looking for a feel-good movie

Rating: 6/10 (21 July 2008)

execution is beautifully done and the visual appeal is worth the ticket. having never been able to see the play in person, i have nothing to compare it to. the younger singers are well cast and to a fabulous job. streep lives up to her reputation and her enthusiasm is infectious throughout giving way to tear-jerker moments with a finesse typical of her other dynamic performances. i have to admit, just to see her in go-go boots was worth it. as for her costar, brosnan.... i found myself laughing at his performance. stick to the stoic Bond and I'll be happy. I left enjoying the experience, but don't expect to be blown away by any part of it.
