Sing Street

Director/writer John Carney ("Once", "Begin Again") takes us on fun journey back in time to Dublin, 1985, where 15-year-old Connor's life is set in turmoil by financial & domestic troubles at home. While struggling to adjust to a new school environment, he is smitten by a pretty girl named Raphina who becomes his muse. His college dropout, stoner, older brother becomes his musical mentor. If you love 80's music & their music videos, check out this terrific comedy drama coming of age story with a nod to "Back to the Future". With great music & good acting, this warm & charming film about youth searching for love & a better life is a winner for the romantic at heart.

Alien gives it 3 ½ "brown shoes & drive it like you stole it" stars out of 4.
