I thought this was really lame.
I'm writing for Slant Magazine now, so check out my list of reviews.
Hopefully I'll have the energy to update my signature soon.
This was fantastic. Surprised more people here haven't seen it.

Very enjoyable film, especially for classical music buffs. Agree with Slant that it's a bit overt and thin on the substance side of things, but if you're a fan of music and love watching great actors at the peak of their craft, this is a very entertaining flick. It's metaphors about group chemistry, although not exactly subtle, is as much about its character as it is its actors. This is an actor's movie.
