Dennis F The script is rather silly which makes this entire film a poor adventure in viewing and listening to some interesting modern music; moreover, it is also obvious that Wood knows nothing about classical music and likewise the director: A classical concert pianist would not refer to himself as a 'piano player!" Likewise, a formal classical pianist in performance with a symphony orchestra and conductor would have the piano on the same level and very near the conductor and NOT on three levels above the orchestra!! Silly and cheap thrills for the visual and the ugly lighting does not become this film. Having a pop singer singing a spiritual and in a cheap 'pop' manner certainly shows the ignorance of the director, producer and script writer for this poorly conceived and developed film concerning a so-called neurotic concert pianist; however, the portions of the piano concerto by a living composer is excellent and likewise the extremely difficult, Lacinquette, piece is most intriguing. Who is the actual concert pianist not listed in the credits in these performances? Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/10/25 Full Review David B A movie that should never have been made. Have any of those involved ever been to a classical music concert? I've never been to one as cheesy as this. Preposterous script, a poseur of a conductor conducting crap, pretentious music and a plot that beggars belief. And, as for the "wife" who is persuaded to burst into song at the end of the concert, words fail me. A film for morons. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/19/23 Full Review Piotr W One of the most fun movies i've had in a while. Had few flaws, few plot choices that im not satisfied with, and just mistakes like the last, the hardest song to play on the Piano was not actualy that impressive (im not a pianist so it is just a bad opinion maybe). But overall - i had fun. And this is most important thing while watching a movie. I couldn't turn my eyes away and i had troubles with blinking sometimes. Few design choices make this film great - the score of this movie is played by the orchestra on the stage, so the music is a part of the world and it is really fun if you think about it while watching. I cant forget the transition from the shot of someone's neck being cut to the woman playing cello. I loved it. I loved the vast sea of emotions portrayed by the main actor. I loved the conductor character that was really fun and i loved how they did show the concert, with more fun than you see in most movies. One of few movies where the good guy is actually more fun to watch than the bad guy and i love this movie for that. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review spencer p With a smart, Classical music-inspired script that only Damien Chazelle could write, beautiful cinematography and impressive piano work from Elijah Wood, Grand Piano is a short, top-notch suspense thriller. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review ahmad m Just wonderful. A timeless masterpiece. Both of them. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Daniel W Grand Piano is so unabashedly ludicrous it is impossible to take seriously. But if you can accept that, it is fun and different. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/04/22 Full Review Read all reviews
