 A classic 80's movie with great music... December 11, 2007
If you are a fan of 80's pop music, then this is a great movie to watch. It has a classic "good girl-boy from the wrong side of the tracks" storyline. The acting is superb, but Jessica Steen (the good girl) does give a great performance as do some of the other supporting actors. The movie is interspersed with great music that culminates with great musical numbers at the end. If you are a fan classic 80's movies, then this is a must see.
 I'm stunned at the positive reviews January 17, 2007

There is absolutely no denying that is a horribly acted piece of tripe. There are no redeeming qualities. And to whomever mentioned things like Grease & West Side Story in the same post with this movie should be throttled and committed.
Don't waste your time. Get a GOOD musical. Oklahoma, South Pacific, Paint Your Wagon, Carousel, Grease, Moulin Rouge, Phantom of the Opera, Singin' in the Rain, and the myriad of others made in the 40's, 50's, 60's and beyond.
You will never get the time back you waste with this "film".

This movie is a poorly acted attempt at a musical. The only redeeming part is the ending with the different high school classes performing their end-of-the-year presentation. That, alone, is worth the money.
I did wear out my first video! December 28, 2006

Midwest girl here that never heard of Sing before the movie. I loved it and had to replace my copy years ago. I would love to get a copy of the Soundtrack because I thought that was as great.

I'm a sucka for a good SING movie... I own movies that move the spirit and soul... such as JESUS-SUPERSTAR/ Grease (BOTH)... FAME & series version... West Side Story/ Rooftops/ Salsa/ Sound Of Music/ Anything with a pulse and step... I was hooked.
Coming from a kid from the Arts... "SING" was expected, to be added to my favorite of collectables. From my Non-Art-Inspired Peers, I got ridiculed - badly, over this flick. But then again, they would never understand... "SING" -- as I DO!.
OKAY -- it wasn't the actors'/actresses' BEST work, but it was REAL enough to be directed and performed as if from REAL LIFE HIGH-SCHOOLERS... They were acting like REAL STUDENTS/ TEACHERS & STAFF!!!
My sister had trophies for "SING"... (I always wanted to prove to her, I CAN DO IT, TOO!) so it took me back -- When I came into her grade; but then, that program was DEAD and long gone!
Oh well... I'm waiting for this to make DVD ARCHIVES!!! Can someone tell me HOW I CAN PUSH THIS???? OR DO I HAVE TO ENDORSE IT, FOR SOLO?
I loved it... for what its worth! Some great MORAL-TYPE MOVIES,(even thoughs low budgeted) never get the recognition they DESERVE! WE SHOULD EMBRACE our VOICE.. OUR SONG... we should endorse in SING -- LET IT COME TO DVD TOO! and BE rebirthed into our schools...but this time tickle the vocals chords of our early mockingbirds in GRADE SCHOOL... so we all get a chance to "SING"!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(I have a couple of my own to contribute) *wink*
