REVIEWED
So this is a fiction movie. But it could be true too maybe not all the points in the film.. and there's a few of them when treated seperately.

Dustin Hoffman got the part which he deserve and utilized it to the best of the actor he is. Debra Winger, Kathy Bates and even Josh Lucas did not. But that is ok as it focused on Stet the cutey choir boy. Not much can be said about Stet played by new young actor Garret. But he did a lot of choir singing ad lip as it could be miming for someone else. The closing credit song by J Groban is nice thou. Maybe his character did not require much script from him. But when he is singing he looks real enough. Oh yes, Kevin Mchale who was the wheelchair kid in Glee is in the film too. In fact if not because of him (in this film) Stet might never got the chance.

The plot is predictable and like many other movies of its kind. But that should not keep one away from watching this where in the end it is sweet ending for everyone.

Musically the part where who between Stet (the instinctive one) and Devon (Analytical one) for the solo part was great. In the end Carvelle (DH) made the right choice.

If all of Stet's family came to fetch him at the end of the film, it would have been more memorable but cheesy of course. I guess that part belongs to Stet's step mom who I think pretty much like Creed's step mom - the husband's son thou out of wedlock and through an affair is also hers to love and take care of. "Step" may not be the right definition here.
