I just saw this film today and enjoyed it very much, so I wanted to know what others on this board thought of the film and its music.I've read many critical reviews which criticize August Rush for its sappiness and for being overly sentimental. This is something I just don't understand. Does emotion have to be stripped down to its subtlest form for critics to appreciate it?
