Since absolutely everything in Sing is completely predictable, I was surprised how much I enjoyed the movie.

Attempt to recreate "Footloose" fire in Brooklyn doesn't work; a few good songs, though

The story is mixed and the music not good enough to make it work.

Sing is an okay film. It is about an an Italian punk who is forced to work with an innocent Jewish girl. Lorraine Bracco and Peter Dobson give good performances. The script is slow in places. Richard Baskin did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the drama.

One of the BEST 80s musicals. If only Sony would release it on DVD.

This movie is actually better than the sum of it's parts. The trailer and the description don't do it justice. With a killer soundtrack and a colorful cast of characters it still reels me in over 20+ years later. I wish they would release it on dvd.
