The let's-put-on-a-show narrative is familiar but agreeable; the characters are likable, and there are some funny one-liners. Go to Full Review Terry Byrne Boston Globe 03/14/2008

The heart of On Broadway is in the right place. But when the story behind a film is more interesting than what's on the screen, that's a problem. Go to Full Review James Verniere Boston Herald 10/18/2008

4/5
offers some truly sweet parts that feel like a return to the indies of the early '90s, when regional cinema still felt fresh and full of purpose. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

06/27/2010 When I first started watching this, I wasn't sold. But I decided to stick it out because of all the good reviews I've read, and I'm really glad I did. It takes a little while to get going, but once it does, it's beautiful. I really enjoyed this. See more 04/13/2010 A wonderful little film. Family, friends, culture and passion. It is stilted in parts but overall a triumph about love of it all. Great rental. See more 01/05/2010 Superb drama..a simple and well written story which is very well enacted..Have to say was very touching and is a recommended family watch!! See more 09/05/2009 joey mcintyre is a natural born actor i just love his performce it is a must see See more 08/30/2009 Heartfelt, but poor acting skills of the cast (esp. Eliza Dushku - yikes) took some of the power out of it. I only downloaded it to our Netflix queue b/c Joey McIntyre is and will always be my favorite New Kid :) Not a great movie, but not a horrible one either. See more 03/28/2009 [font=Comic Sans MS]Excellent story, with great direction and a fantastic cast. I believe the writer/director had also co-written Southie back in the 90's which was a well done indie.[/font] See more Read all reviews
