    This won't suit everyone's taste but I LOVED it! I didn't see the setup coming with the brothers but the way they wrapped it in the whole storyline and with a wee twist in the end, it was just delightful!

    More drama than comedy and with lots of authentic irish music, I really enjoyed watching it with my husband for St. Paddy's Day. But if you've irish roots, you'll likely enjoy it any day ~

    I originally wanted to see this movie because I'm a big Corrs fan and I wanted to see what Andrea Corr was like. I thought she did well for her first big role in a film. I thought the film was really good for what it was supposed to be, which was a light hearted Irish comedy. I really like the music in it as well.

    An entertaining flick about Irish musicians, brothers, and the complications of love. But mainly about the boys trying to "one up" the other. In the end I would have hoped for a little more music, but really I'm just being greedy here. Colorful dialog and wonderful tunes, perfect for those in love with all things Irish.

    Really cute and funny movie about Irish music. I had never heard of this movie before, just happened to come across it at the video store and thought it would be a perfect movie for me. Irish music and the 60s, 2 of my favorite things! Plenty of Guinness and "colourful Irish language" too. Very enjoyable.

    A great Irish flick with lots of nice shots of Ireland. Has some funny comic moments, but its memorable.

    This was a pretty cool movie about Irish folk music and a two brother's bands that compete at a festival.
