Title: Nice Try
Product review: None of the hard work on this film matters when the music is so lousy. The cheapo but colorful visuals are fine, the cast is too. Has so much time passed since good music was written that nobody can tell anymore when something is bad? The Nineties may have killed any ability to judge. Used to be Europe was the source of cruddy "music" (- if you think ABBA is bad, for example, listen to what the Swedes were listening to BEFORE they came along! It will actually make you appreciate that band). There are scraps of decent melodies that start here and there in Repo, but they never gel into effective songs. No matter what you think of Sarah Brightman, she can actually sing; too bad they waste her here along with all the rest. And here's yet another U.S. film shot in Canada - will the last U.S. citizen working on an actual U.S. film shoot please turn out the lights?
