The Sound of Music
Posted by martinteller on September 30, 2007
I’m not inherently against wholesome family films. Granted, it’s not my favorite kind of movie, but if it’s entertaining enough (The Wizard of Oz), I’m all for it. But this is just too much. This precocious brood of rosy-cheeked little moppets is too sugar-sweet for my tastes. I don’t even like the songs that much, which is unfortunate because just about all of them are sung twice. The scenery and color is lovely, though, and at least it’s not too dull for a 3-hour picture. Rating: 5
