Once Review

The story of a guy (budding guitarist and singer) and a girl(good pianist) and their eventful week in Dublin.

So this movie has been one of the best modern day musicals and a very refreshing background score and music makes it worthy of the Oscar it received for Best Achievement in Music written beating August Rush the same year.

An immigrant finds a wannabe singer in the streets and what follows is a bunch of jamming sessions, some wonderful memories and heartwarming love stories.

The songs keep on ringing in your ears and their stories which they narrate in a sing-song manner are mesmerising and at the same time not too mushy and fake looking

You feel genuine chemistry between the guy and the girl and as their recordings get better, you sway to their tunes and feel as if you are enjoying music straight from the heart with romance not overwhelming enough which makes it a simplistic and real movie

Watch it if a feel-good movie with less mushiness is what you are looking for and can relate to romance through lyrics of a song rather than normal words.
