Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

My friends an I still joke about this movie 10 years after watching it as it was the WORST movie any of us had ever seen!!! A girl who can only understand song...ha! What a JOKE!!!!My friends an I still joke about this movie 10 years after watching it as it was the WORST movie any of us had ever seen!!! A girl who can only understand song...ha!

Little girl Amy witnesses the death of her pop star father and withdraws from life. The only means of communicating to her is through song. What a wonderful idea but poorly executed. The script needed to go through further drafts to eliminate the repetitiveness and the unbalanced genre!

Alana De Roma is a very talented, young actress. In her role as Amy she seems very real. The role is perfect for her. Many other commentators of this film is giving a plot summary. I`m not going to do that. I just want to give you the opportunity to go to the theater and see a great movie. The first time I saw this movie, was also the first time I heard applaud in the theater. In the beginning it seems like a heavy music video, but after a while the focus gets on Amy. The young girl who have lost her father. The music in this film is also great. It gets you into the right mood. Together with a truthful scenery of Melbourne, it lifts this film up like an elevator. The film gives you an opportunity to smile, and in the next moment, cry. I give top scores to Alana De Roma (Amy), Tanya Rammus (Rachel), Ben Mendelsohn (Robert) and the director: Nadia Tass. This is a film for real film lovers, for teachers, and others who want to see the best Australian movie ever.

Amy is the only daughter of famous (and dead) rock star Will Enker (Nick Cave) and his partner Tanya Rammus (Rachel Griffiths). As a young child on the road she witnessed the tragic death of her father, and since that night has been deaf.Tanya wants to discover what is wrong with her daughter - because in all other ways she is a free-spirited angelic child. Social services are not so understanding, and so in an attempt to gain time to help Amy, Tanya goes into hiding in one of the inner city suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. In the street they end up on we meet a group of dysfunctional characters, including Robert Buchanan (Ben Mendelsohn), a starving but talented musician. In the process of 'finding' Amy, this group of dysfunctional people are bought together.Keep an eye out for the singing coppers
