Summary: Excellent Movie--An Improvement on the Book
Review: This movie is based on the book of the same title written by Maria Augusta Trapp. The movie compresses a 12-year story into a year, but it is very well done nonetheless.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great Movie
Review: This movie moves slowly at first but keeps you interested. You quickly get tied into the characters. Great acting by most of the cast. At times the music tends to slow down the pace of the film. Great intrigue at some points toward the end. Definitely a must see.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Julie Andrews, music, children, What could be better?!!!!
Review: I first saw this movie when I was 6 years old and didn't quite get it then. When I saw it again when I was 8, I fell in love with it. I mean, come on, what could be better then Julie Andrews singing, the beautiful scenery of Salzburg, Austria, and a love story? Since I was 8, I have seen the movie over a million times, I know the whole script by heart. Raindrops on roses...Whiskers on kittens...My favorite things, Edelwiss, Something good, are only a few of the wonderful song in the movie. What makes the movie memorable is the opening scene, Julie Andrews on the majestic mountain tops singing the title song-The sound of music. This movie recieved 10 oscar nomination, and went home with five.. but, they didn't go home with the one the film really deserved- Best Actress. No Offense to Julie Christie, but I think Julie Andrews should have gotten the Oscar!!! Anyway, This is a must have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS: This is a great family movie, I am 12, and don't get bored of it.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: the hills are alive with the sound of vomit
Review: when i was a child my mom forced me to watch this movie. I hated it then and i hate it now. the only thing that is watchable is the beautiful scenery, but i can catch that on the discovery channel. if the producers had required julie to sing with a sock in her mouth, or had the music of spinal tap inm the background, the movie would have been first rate entertainment. seeing this movie has drstically ;degressed the quality of my life

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful!!! One of the Best Musicals Ever Made!!!
Review: First of all, I'd like to confess that I've probably watched this movie more than one hundred times in my lifetime.

"The Sound of Music" is such a popular movie that people can't enough of making fun of it, which is understandable: I mean, a nun, seven children, songs by Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Austrian landscape. In reality, most of these people probably haven't sat down and watched this movie, because it is an absolutely unforgettable experience.

Julie Andrews is absolutely magical as Maria. When she runs on the mountaintop and starts singing the famous lyrics "The hills are alive...," it sends chills down my spine to this day. Christopher Plummer cuts a good figure as the captain but gave a rather stiff performance: he doesn't bring anything extra to the role. Eleanor Parker, as the Baroness, was wasted--a role like that was far beneath her talents. But the children were all wonderful, especially Charmian Carr who was charming as Liesl.

This movie is ultrasentimental and proud of it. But I'll stick with this rather than some of those one-dimensional slasher flicks which are in fashion these days. It has a plausible story, some of the world's most remembered songs, and the glorious Austrian and Swiss Alps in the background. Overall, I can't say anything other than I loved it.
