	Blu-ray Review: August Rush \| High-Def Digest
		If the film's story sounds absolutely insufferable, it is. 'August Rush' is movie that never met a contrivance it didn't like, and writer-director Kristen Sheridan trots out each and every one 'em as if she was Christopher Columbus discovering America.
		What is most cloying and precious about 'August Rush' is it's absolute refusal to even give us a knowing wink about its own obvious manipulation of our emotions, and it's this kind of shameless pandering that I just find condescending.
		Given 'August Rush's poor box office showing, it's little surprise that Warner has done next to nothing to celebrate the film's video release -- this supplement package is about as paltry as they get.

	Review: August Rush
		August Rush is constructed on a foundation of interconnected failures, the biggest of which comes at the very end.
		August Rush would like us to believe that some mystical Force (as the characters describe it, it sounds a lot like the one in Star Wars) binds everyone together.
		Had the movie focused more on August's peculiar kind of brilliant madness and less on the dreary soap opera of his possible reunion with his mother and father, August Rush might have offered something of value.

	August Rush
		August Rush's driving force is the title character's unwavering belief that his parents do want him.
		The fact that August is ultimately encouraged to develop his gift, rather than stifling it, might prompt children in the audience to do the same.
		Mean tactics employed by his persecutors include waking him up in the middle of the night, pinning him to the wall and pounding their fists near his head to scare him, teasing him about his desire to find his parents, and making his friend call him a "freak" to his face.

	wcco.com - 'August Rush'
		"August Rush" begins with a boy (Freddie Highmore) standing in an open field where the surrounding sounds — the wind, the trees, the grass — swirl like a symphony in his head.
		Rush soon falls in with Wizard and proves himself a music prodigy, beginning with playing guitar in a strange banging fashion that (impossibly) produces refined sounds.
		If any young parentless child were to take "August Rush" seriously, he or she would almost certainly wind up deluded by the most unlikely of dreams — and making a terrible racket, besides.

	Lilting 'August Rush' is poetry in emotion - USATODAY.com
		August Rush (* * * out of four) will not be for everyone, but it works if you surrender to its lilting and unabashedly sentimental tale of evocative music and visual poetry.
		Early on, there is a particularly powerful scene in which Russell and her cello and Meyers and his guitar are juxtaposed, creating an intriguing sound, a kind of soaring classical-rock hybrid.
		August Rush is a film that is all about the transformative emotional power of music.

	August Rush (2007): Reviews
		Years later, performing on the streets of New York and cared for by a mysterious stranger who gives him the name August Rush, the child uses his remarkable musical talent to seek the parents from whom he was separated at birth.
		August Rush is a rather prosaic, oddly anxious, contemporary take on Dickens' Oliver Twist, with Williams – in nasty-man twee mode, a newish one for him – thrown in for bad measure.
		To describe August Rush as a piece of shameless hokum doesn’t quite do justice to the potentially shock-inducing sugar content of this contemporary fairy tale.

	August Rush (2007)
		Going in to August Rush you've got to be more than willing to accept fairytale magic; you've got to be willing to embrace it, with all of its whimsy and overzealous sense of wonder.

	August Rush
		Going in to August Rush, you've got to be more than willing to accept fairy tale magic; you've got to be looking to embrace it, with all of its whimsy and overzealous sense of wonder.
		And of course, because August Rush is all about the magic of fate and coincidence, this little boy's love of music comes from some sort of machinations of the gods: His mother Lyla (Keri Russell) is a star concert cellist; his father Louis (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) is the guitarist and singer of a rock band.
		While it is totally in character for a fairy tale to feature people who feel an instant and inexplicable connection to one another, August Rush relies on the device more than is strictly necessary, and unfortunately is content to have it stand in for actual character development.

	Movie Review for August Rush
		August Rush is one of those rare movies that made me dislike it, then won be back over before the end credits roll.
		Just about everything in August Rush has been done before, but somehow, it still works and the deeper the movie gets, the more it draws you in to the point that you can look past the derivative nature of the film and enjoy it.
		There’s no way to avoid saying it: August Rush is a “feel-good movie” with a bit of a fairy tale element with the story of the forlorn orphan seeking out his parents and finding a world of instant success along the way.

		Also in the crowd are all of August's benefactors: a spunky street kid (Leon Thomas III); a kindly social worker (Terrence Howard, cashing in on his Oscar); a kindlier priest (Mykelti Williamson); and the kindliest woman (Marian Seldes) who apparently runs both Juilliard and the New York Philharmonic.
