I saw it last week. Nothing special about it except for some 'very' special graphic effects.

The story is somewhat boring and predictable. Yes, it is a fictitious world, but nonetheless, it build up on other stories of the same kind. It's no match for "The Lord of The Rings" trilogy.

So, all in all, I wouldn't recommend it.

Just finished watching the "August Rush" movie, and couldn't help but to shed some tears. Even though I knew the movie isn't a masterpiece from the first 30 mins. or so. But the music is so touching that you can't just sit and not be moved. The story is somewhat casual, a 'fairy tale' kinda story. Nothing new or out of the ordinary. But when coupled with the amazing soundtrack, it WILL surely force an emotional reaction now and then, no matter how much you try to avoid it.

So, for 80% music, 20% story, the movie is a success, and I don't regret buying it.
