Leave your thoughts about The Music Never Stopped.
| Kansas City StarRobert W. ButlerIt's an audience-friendly drama about family, conflict and the healing power of music. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatTouching story about the emotional uplift of music, the tenderizing of a family member's heart, and a father-son reconciliation like nothing you've ever seen before; one of the best films of 2011. |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovMeant to be about the soundtrack of our lives, and music as a form of connection, but it traffics only in cliches and screenwriting shortcuts. |
| Film.comEric D. SniderThis is the kind of warm, uncluttered, feel-good film that you take your parents to see, and I absolutely mean that in a good way. |
| Indie Movies OnlineKimberly GadetteJK Simmons takes center stage, clueless as to how to communicate with his son. And then there's the music, grabbing at us, taking us out of ourselves while pulling us in. Playing us, as it were -- but in a good way. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceThis heartily maudlin character study is sort of a crash course in Boomerology. |
| eFilmCritic.comErik ChildressThe film does manage to transcend its disease-of-the-week trappings and fall squarely between TV-movie and Oscar-baiting. A rather solid father/son tale as their relationship becomes a very moving center. |
| Paste MagazineJonathan W. HickmanThe treatment of the music alone makes the movie worth seeing, but the sophisticated nature of the narrative builds well on the musical foundation. |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura CliffordThis sentimental father and son tale adapted from an Oliver Sacks essay by Gwyn Lurie and Gary Marks plays it altogether too genteelly for the turbulent times it depicts. |
| AARP Movies for GrownupsAustin O'ConnorSimmons has never been better than he is here, as he transforms Henry from a guy burdened with regret to one bursting with hope. |
