AUGUST RUSH MOVIE MOVIE

But morning brings the harsh glare of sunlight - and reality: Lyla is whisked away by her protective father (William Sadler), never to see Louis again. After meeting cute in Greenwich Village, they spend the night together. It's the heady cocktail that entwines two young musicians - Irish singer-guitarist Louis ( Jonathan Rhys Meyers) and reserved, brilliant cellist Lyla ( Keri Russell) - in this imperfect-but-winning film. I don't want my kids thinking that's love.Īh, young love. Other than that, I think it was a cute movie, and the story of the boy was great, but the parents' backstory is just a little too unbelievable. Both of us agreed that 'love at first sight' is merely a first impression, and that what they did was irresponsible. After finishing this movie, my 11-year-old and I had a conversation about true love. I want my kids to see realistic love stories, like that between me and my husband, or some of our couple friends, not flimsy, weepy, unrealistic stories like this. After being separated, they both spontaneously decide that they were meant for each other and rush off to New York. First of all, they had a kid without even meeting a second time and completely disregarding birth control. Yes, it's cute, yes, it's heartwarming, yet it's also kind of disturbing.

Apparently, after thinking about each other for the ELEVEN YEARS they've been apart, they drop everything and rush back to the place they met to find each other again, and also find their son. Both are unaware of their son, who is wandering through New York trying to find them. They part ways and battle work and family life to find each other. After five seconds of talking to him, they make out and end up having sex (nothing shown until the morning) on a random roof.

However, I wasn't sure what the movie was trying to get across? The overarching story is that a young woman met a guy somewhat like her on a roof. Sure it was a good family movie, and covered the beautiful journey of a young boy searching for where he belonged.
