Music movies rev up the year

Once (5/5) is the standout out music movie about a down and out singer songwriter and candidate for movie of the year. The music is great and I hope the guy releases an album. The big music movie is August Rush (2/3) which is a big attempt with a brilliant story with brilliant music which is then ruined by TERIBLE directioo and the worst performance (miscasting?) of Robin Williams ever. The band visits (3/5) is a small egyptian movie that is worth seeing just for the section on how to pick up a girl.
