The following is excerpted from the best film review: (I just picked up the text I liked and left it for myself to enjoy)
The process of watching the movie is like watching the raindrops hit the pond on a fresh afternoon, one surprise after another, so you can't bear to watch it it ends.
Keira Knightley's singing skills are indeed not very good, but fortunately this role is 100% in line with her temperament. A flat chested band girl with an attitude and sweetness, no one looks better than her in rolled-leg pants.
Mark Ruflo has always been suitable for the middle-aged uncle who is neurotic and has a lot of pursuit in his heart. The best thing is that the movie does not make the hero and heroine together or have a night of passion. Their passion is all sublimated in that recording over and over again, which is great.
Sao Dang didn't expect him to have acting skills at first, but the fact is that there are surprises. From the young and artistic plaid shirt man at the beginning to the scumbag characteristics after he became famous, the high pitch of the last "lost stars" is really amazing, and it is also the climax of the whole film. . After watching the movie, I replayed it more than 10 times.
In addition, the supporting roles are also brilliant, the college-style violin-playing siblings, the hip-hop style black drummer and bassist, who has played or wants to play a band who doesn't dream of such a mix and match combination? They were playing music and making records together on rooftops, under bridges, on the New York subway, and it was really cool. These recordings are beautiful and lovely. They are for pop music and a love poem for New York.
I like the spirit conveyed in the film, good music is on the corner and everyone can enjoy it. As the song sings: We are the dust in the galaxy, we are the lost stars, just trying to light up the darkness. At the end of the story, the heroine rode a bicycle, did not become famous, and was not with any man. She sold the album with a dollar. The moment the upload was successful, her life, the life of those songs, ushered in again. A fresh start.
