A great family show with musical artists. My family enjoyed it. I rated it as high as I did because it is a quality Christmas production. There seems to be a limited number of plot lines for Christmas. This film had a bittersweet twist that gave more substance to it. It is definitely not a fluff movie. I found nothing offensive that would prevent viewing by a family. Willie Nelson's character, Nick adds a bit of whimsy to the story. Harry Connick plays a caring, intelligent father with a tender heart and a load of guilt. It is well balanced with music and acting, which I thought was credible. It is a new movie this season and I bought it not knowing anything about it except that it had a cast of monumental musical talent. I was not disappointed, although a little more singing by this talented cast would have been welcome. It's a sweet story, but not saccharin.
Seen it now about 6 times, gets better every time ! Harry is a great actor ! Willie is very good . !
Angels Sing was a lovely, whimsical comedy-with-tear-jerker moments.
Yes it was predictable, but it was a lovely Christmas movie which I am now going to add to our ever-increasing Christmas movie family extravaganza!
Having all the musicians in the movie could have been a bit more prominent, (I would have loved to hear HC Jr show us some of his amazing Christmas singing), but nevertheless I loved the music, which was fresh and not the overdone usual Christmas classics.
Give this movie a chance! I think you'll be hugging your family on the couch, and making up your own version of the 12 Days of Christmas!

I loved the music, I enjoyed the actors, I was touched by the story. We have experienced loss in our family very similar to the films portrayal, and it touched me very deeply to see such a message as this film unfolds for the viewer. I believe this one will be a yearly visit, the people of Angel's Sing are an inspiration in so many ways. It heartens me to see a holiday based film without touting up so much commercialization, though some folks will see the lighting aspect of this film as a part of that, I don't agree. A celebration of one of the most wonderful and magical times of our lives must contain some festive celebration and decoration as to highlight it's positive effect on all of us.
It is really wonderful to see so many musical talents lending their "acting" chops to this film, I hope there is a soundtrack somewhere, BIG THUMBS UP !!!!!

Yes, i know. Why rate a load of gubbins a SEVEN?! Well, let me tell you. The storyline is a bit patchy, well, a lot patchy. It is also really, really cheesy. I mean, seriously, my cheesy nachos covered in cheese sauce has less cheese. I quite simply do not care. The amount of musicians in this movie is gob smacking! Legends i say! Willie nelson, harry conick, lyle lovatt. All crooning and warbling to their hearts content. Something about these peoples love of music shines through the rest of the awfulness! If you love country music, then this is movie for you. If you love sickening xmas movies, this is also for you. Other than that, avoid like the plague. I myself, well, i liked it. It made me feel gooey xx
