... View MoreThis movie is definitely a must see! A movie like this is one that I can watch over and over again. Humorous but definitely charming with the beautiful Hamptons as the setting, not only is the movie absolutely entertaining, but the songs are unforgettable. It makes you want to go out and buy the soundtrack immediately, if not sooner. This movie makes you appreciate your closest friends as the ones who completely understand what you are going through. And not only do they understand, but they help you out no matter what. With the combination of a witty cast, fabulous director, and absolutely incredible songs sung by one of the greatest a capella groups, this is one hit that everyone has to see!
... View MoreActually a great movie, pretty fun and entertaining. They manage to squeeze some good mileage out of a tried and tested formula, with some very nice performances. Rosemarie DeWitt is especially fun to watch, and Molly Shannon's shtick mostly refreshing, while Liz Stauber manages to fill a small role with unexpectedly biting, dry wit. The men are all fine too, and their camaraderie feels fresh and real. The dialogues are loving crafted and witty, but manage to avoid being annoyingly clever. At the end I was perhaps missing a hint of a wider perspective, or deeper insight, into some of the themes previously touched upon. The story stayed firmly in romantic comedy territory, though, but it didn't diminish the pleasure of watching this film.
... View MoreI saw this movie at the Rhode Island Film Festival a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it. If you like to laugh, enjoy good music, a good story line and some honest emotion then you will love it too. I met Bruce Leddy, the director, and he is a wonderful, humble guy. The film won the audience choice award, which was no surprise as it received a lengthy standing ovation. The audience was clearly on a high after seeing this film and gave a lot of positive feedback. Hopefully it gets the recognition it deserves and will be shown in theaters. It's a movie that anyone can see.I've paid $10 to see a lot of movies in theaters that don't hold a candle to this one.
... View MoreShut up and sing is a great mixture of humor, friendship, and making you take the time to remember the good things in life.While not a well know cast, Molly Shannon is hilarious along with a few new faces. It has good music, a well written script, and of course how could I forget an insanely hot nanny! The scenery/setting is great and makes you want to be spending the weekend on the beach with friends. It reminds you of the important things in life and not to take the small things too seriously.I would recommend the movie to just about anyone...maybe only those who truly hate music would not enjoy it.
