Face The Music is a movie which might be enjoyed by those 17 and older. Molly Ringwald's and Patrick Dempsey's performances make the move. Face The Music is truly a ho-hum film. It is just life. However, it is a lighthearted movie in which there is no thinking, just experience it. It is a movie to play cards to or play board games to. Anotherwards, Face The Music is background music/noise. You can join the film practically anywhere and not miss any excitement. Face The Music will at times put a smile on your face. Sometimes, that is all you want from a film. Make popcorn, and serve sodas during the movie and enjoy the entertainment. I give Face The Music four thumbs up.

May put a smile on your face
Pretty good movie, not as bad as some people say!
I was looking through what movies Patrick Dempsey had been in on this site, and I found that he was in this and that Molly Ringwald was in it too, and I really like her too. So I decided to get it, it was only £1 something for a new copy on amazon. I had read bad reviews of it but it was so cheap that even if I didn't like it, it wasn't like I was wasting money, and I'm glad I got it now, as it was quite good and I would watch it again.
It wasn't the best movie i've ever seen, and it was slow and a bit boring in some parts, and Lysette's character even though I think she's a good actress (I've liked her in other things too like The Bill), her character was very annoying. But I did like Molly and Patrick's characters in this, and that Donnie guy was quite funny.
It really is worth watching if you're a fan of Patrick or Molly, or even both like me. Patrick looks gorgeous in it! So I think even if I hadn't of liked the storyline at all, I still would have enjoyed watching it for him.
I really thought it had some cute moments in it too, especially at the end!
Where are we? Why is the music so loud?
I had no idea this movie was supposed to take place in France until a character mentioned going to the Eiffel Tower. I figured this was a bad sign of things to come. There were several instances when the background music almost drowned out the dialogue.
The disorientation continues throughout. The editing of this film felt disjointed. There were multiple instances of cutting between two scenes in a way that felt unnecessary and jarring. It interrupted the pacing of a scene.
The most impressive part of this film is how many scenes there are of Molly Ringwald wearing just a towel in public spaces. It's a surprisingly high number and there seems to be no reason for it, unless there's some symbolism totally lost on me.
