Watching Something Real

Rating: Null/10 (30 August 2015)

Very rarely do I watch a film these days without looking for the joins or finding myself bored with what's going on the screen. I even switch off mentally and come back into a film later as they've failed to keep my interest. This film had me searching out for information about the musicians involved as it captured my interest and it didn't let go. Yes, I saw the sound boom in the studio reflection and yes I saw the street kids following the camera but you know what I couldn't care less because I though I was 'watching something real'. The way they look at each other and listen to each others words and playing tells you this is something real. They are either the worlds greatest actors or we were watching something real? You decide for yourself. The problem with IMDb is it attracts comments from people who haver nothing to say and no doubt they'll try and throw that back at me but you know what I couldn't care less. I loved this film and it's music and want to be young again so I can learn to play the guitar, busk in the streets of Dublin and have someone come up to me with words telling me they love my music. If a movie can do that for you I would suggest its worth watching.
