This is a great flick for anybody who was involved in the music department at their high school.

The director of the community band that I play in has threatened me with the "Mr. Holland's Opus Method" to make sure that I don't drag the tempo. (You need to see the movie to know what I am referring to).

Almost a remake of many teacher of the year films, like Goodbye Mr. Chips.. this one makes one worthy of watching once if not twice, over time, that is.

1995 Academy Award Nominee Dreyfuss, as best actor, is a passionate musician but reluctant teacher. But he instead realizes its the other way round. He actually has a passion for teaching.... for gods sake! PG, so anyone can watch.

Personally, I found this film ok to watch. Not enthralling. Not stunning. Not a real lot of action. It just is inspiring or motivating. High Praise from me. I have yet to watch it twice however, which tells me it did not kick me in the ass as I should have wished.

Well worthy of watching at least once, please.

This movie is one of the best I have ever seen. I am currently a music education major and I have to say, this movie is one of my biggest inspirations. Dreyfuss does a fantastic job and the film has many messages and makes us realize that life, especially our hearing is a gift. Beautiful masterpiece.

A lot of the movie will leave you a bit bored. But the story is good. If you are one for music you really will appreciate this film. Richard Dreyuss had a great performance and the movie had a very nice and happy ending.

I gave this movie 100% because of the writing, the acting, and the way how they did it. This movie was one of the most heart warming films that I have ever seen in my whole entire life. This movie showed so many different things like showmanship, friendship, entertainment, heartwarm, and loyalty. It was 100% fantastic. I thought that Richard Dreyfuss did the best as he could. He played a great teacher type role and the he completley made the adaption of his character, and he really understood it. It was touching,and everything having to do with touching, and just completley awesome. Overall this is one of the best films that I have seen, and it will soothen your heart.

10 STARS!!!!

A heartwarming story that shows the life of a man who's love of music led him in a much different direction in his life than he originally intended. Touching film. Would highly recommend...

A terrific movie. One that must be seen. Heartwarming, sad, and funny. Combine that with great music, wonderful acting, and a good plot, and you get a near-masterpiece. Very highly recommended.
