Angels Sing (2013)

As a child, Michael Walker wished every day could be Christmas. That is, until a tragic accident crushed his holiday spirit. Thirty years later, Michael still can't muster any joy for the holidays, despite encouragement from his playful wife and well-intentioned parents. But when his young son faces a tragedy, Michael needs to make amends with his past. A mysterious man named Nick gives Michael a gift and instills in him the courage to find the joy that he lost.

It's not often I find a well scripted movie these days. Most are badly written and try too hard to be "modern" or "edgy" in order to try to get laughs in the crudest way possible.

Well this movie is a refreshing respite from that sort of thing.

When I looked into seeing this movie it had a rating of 7.0 on IMDb. There was only one review and it was a good one.

After watching it, I gave it an even higher rating than that because I was not expecting much.

Boy was I surprised. What a pleasant Christmas story and what a cast of musicians! Very worth seeing especially this time of year.

By the time I watched it, the rating had dropped below 5. No more reviews, just lots of 1 ratings to bring it down. This is what happens when you make a movie that shows what the majority of the country believes in. We get the far left haters who give it a 1 without ever watching it, just to bring the ratings down presumably because they hate Christianity.

Well, don't fall for the low rating. It will probably go down more as more far left Christmas haters find out about it, but don't be deterred.

I'm glad to say that good family movies are not gone. Hope we get more.
