Summary: THE BEST!
Review: Simply my most favorite movie of all time. This movie captures the heart and soul of a person like none ever before or since. Every emotion that can be exhibited in an individual is touched in this movie. I've seen it many, many times and each time it gets better and better. I have preordered the DVD version and can't wait to view it in that format. All I need to do now is purchase a DVD player.

Summary: Normally, I hate musicals!
Review: This one is fairly classic. I usually don't go for musicals, but this one is pretty cool! The character development was excellent, the plot is great and aside from being a little cloying at times, it is all around a pretty good movie!

Summary: Still my favorite movie (admit it, it's yours too...)
Review: Few films have been as overwhelmingly popular as "The Sound of Music"...and few films have borne as much contempt from critics, who tend to dismiss its sentiment, its simplistic themes, its lack of "depth," if you will. A giddy, tune-spouting nun (Julie Andrews, at her best) who woos an Austrian captain and enchants his seven equally giddy, tune-spouting children? "Bah!" they say. Sure, it won an Oscar for Best Picture, but it's also one of the only movies to accomplish that feat and yet not receive a screenplay nomination ("Titanic" was another, go figure). Is this sophisticated, provocative filmmaking? No. A better question--who cares?There are, no doubt, many "greater" films, but I doubt that even the best of them are as durable, as endlessly enjoyable as this one. I wouldn't hesitate to label it a masterpiece. I've memorized every frame since I was six and it still leaves me spellbound each time I see it, and that's a claim to fame only a full-blown masterpiece could make--I mean, I love "Vertigo" dearly, but even it would lose my attention the fiftieth time around. Not "The Sound of Music." From that first stunning sweep over the Austrian landscape to the rapturously uplifting final shot of the Von Trapps crossing the Alps (if you don't consider that emotionally resonant, I suggest you check your pulse), this is an unparalleled entertainment. And, of course, a musical second to none--I ask you, are there any songs as delightfully hummable as the ones here? I defy you to enter a crowded room and find someone who doesn't know "My Favorite Things" off the top of his head. Alright, enough. This is undoubtedly the most undignified and ramblesome review I've written in a while, but I think I've made my point. It's been nearly forty years since "The Sound of Music" first entered theaters--and hearts--around the world. A hundred years from now, by which time the medium will probably have altered beyond recognition, it'll still feel like a classic.

Summary: Sometimes Things are Just Sweet
Review: Oh sure, there are moments that Post-Moderns will rate as camp and kitsch, but the overall effect of this lively musical can lift even the most cynical urbanites. Maria, The Captain and the troupe evidence the best in human nature, and director Wise - no slouch - vividly paints a sylvan, civilized world threatened by the barbarism of encroaching Nazis and Fascists. Who can knock Maria's wonderful spunk and enthusiasm for living and loving, or the Captain's hard shell as Maria deftly melts it? Yeah, it's corny and sucrose in parts - musicals rarely skirt sentimentality - but it's wonderful family entertainment, and a lyrical illustration of 'where the day can take you' if you have the courage to listen to your heart. Young Love was never so sweet as "Sixteen Going on Seventeen". Let down your armor and enjoy this timeless gem, and in the words of the Old Sister belting out at the window, 'follow every rainbow, til you find your dream'.

Summary: WONDERFUL SOUND OF MUSIC
Review: I have not yet seen the DVD of "The Sound of Music" but I know it has a ton of thing, when it will be coming out Aug 29, 2000. I have ordered a copy of the DVD from amazon.com The movie is timeless because of the music it brings into your life, just like the songs do. It's full of happiness and joy and most of all it shows the love of a family and the care that they show for one another. I have seen the VHS tape and watch it at different times when it has aired yearly on NBC. It's a great musical for the entire family. If you have not seen it yet, buy a copy before it's too late. It's the greatest gift of all, if you are looking for a family musical! Buy it for your friend or for yourself today!

Summary: Great Story
Review: THE SOUND OF MUSIC is definitely a classic. Based on a true story, it chronicles a portion of the life of the Van Trap family. The plot is awesome, and all the songs fit in well with the plot. This movie is a beautiful story of a family that cares for its members and stands up for what it believes in.
