Thank you, I wasn’t sure if I’d see Song Sung Blue or not so it’s good to get a recommendation from someone who’s seen it

I liked Roofman and would happily rewatch when it's streaming.

I really enjoyed it and amazing that it’s a true story. Imagine eating all those M&M’s.

I basically cried through most of SSB, and I didn't know what happened to the couple in real life so that was extremely emotional

Song Sung Blue is great. It wasn't what I was expecting at all - some very sharp turns in the plot. I thought it was going to be a Neil Diamond jukebox musical but it's all that and more.

Loved Song Sung Blue. Kate Hudson was absolutely fantastic.

Caught a glimpse of DP dabbing his eyes so it must've been a tear-jerker. Typically my eyes were streaming at the end.

ChaChingCherry · 05/01/2026 16:50

Seeing it on Wed and looking forward to it.

The critics hates Song Sung Blue. I loved it and wonder what they watched! But I often find that with films 🤣

The other one I've enjoyed recently was Housmaid.

I'm excited for Song Sung Blue

LushLemonTart · 07/01/2026 13:30

Watched Song sung blue yesterday with dp and loved it. The car though! I won't say much as to spoil it but bloody hell.
I cried so did dh. He's a weeper at films anyway. Whole row of us were sniffling.

I haven't heard of roofman I'll Google.

LushLemonTart · 07/01/2026 13:31

Dh not dp. Not that it matters 🤣

Sturmundcalm · 07/01/2026 18:26

I didn't love Song Sung Blue. Thought it was good but just didn't get me - and no hint of tears at any point!

Kate Hudson was v good but I think Hugh Jackman just didn't work in that role for me, not least because he's got a pretty distinctive singing voice (IMO) and just sounded like himself...

Did love Roofman though :-)

FairViewRosie25 · 08/01/2026 21:42

Saw it yesterday brilliant film. Hugh and Kate are soo good

QuirkyTurtl · 09/01/2026 08:05

Oooh I was debating on whether to watch SSB, so it’s great to have some recs…I shall go watch!

TwoLeggedGrooveMachine · 12/01/2026 17:39

I watched Song Sung Blue with my widowed mum. She and my dad big Neil Diamond fans. I hated my dad’s MOR taste in music but Neil Diamond is my guilty pleasure. My mum and I cried for about half of the film. We had a lovely bonding moment watching it and really enjoyed it. Not at all what I was expecting. Kate Hudson was brilliant.

Minjou · 14/01/2026 13:24

Saw song sung blue last night, cried several times throughout. Not at all what I was expecting, much better.

berlinbaby2025 · 14/01/2026 19:08

I saw Song Sung Blue today and it was OK, but like a PP I thought Hugh Jackman wasn't quite right in that role. As a result I couldn't believe in the two main characters as a couple. But Kate Hudson was fabulous and I hope she gets an Oscar nomination next week.

IsThisLifeNow · 15/01/2026 13:41

I loved Song Sung Blue, it really surprised me actually. Both Hugh jackman and Kate Hudson are good in it, Kate Hudson especially, its a very sweet, charming film.

Sorry, but I hated Roofman. The guy is a dirtbag and not likeable enough to redeem himself from it. Look at all the bad choices the girlfriend made, if she was a Mumsnetter we'd have warned her off him straight away!

Daytimetellyqueen · 25/01/2026 01:01

Saw Song Sung Blue earlier today & loved it. Thought it was brilliant & great acting! Hope KH wins the Oscar for it.
