Movies come and go but there are some stay with you for the rest of your life. This is one such movie. To me personally, this movie made realize that sometimes we don't appreciate the music of yesterday. Jazz is the foundation of a lot of today's music. Most of the youth of today don't know nothing about jazz. It's really a shame. That's why I really enjoyed this movie. From the crazy beginning to the spectacular ending and everything else in between(like the crazy warthog!!! Instant classic!), this movie is a great for the entire family. Jazz fans will dig it just for the sheer brilliance and courage of these girls(and a boy!) to become a real band. I recommend also to watch the making of documentary. Besides the actual concert, you will see the efforts the band made. Why am i calling the actresses and the actor a band? BECAUSE THEY ARE! You'll see from start to finish they learn to become a band from setting up to finding out their instruments weren't working right sometimes to perform one of the best ending i ever seen in a movie, all the while honoring the great jazz legends of the past. Watch this movie and enjoy it the same way you enjoyed "The terminal".
