With Begin Again, writer/director John Carney attempted to recreate the magic of his masterpiece, Once. The result isn't terrible. Ultimately this film does not work nearly as well as Once, but it has its moments, pretty good music and James Corden in a supporting role. If you haven't seen Once yet, I recommend checking out that movie instead. Sing Street, Carney's film after Begin Again, is also music-focused and a more enjoyable movie than this one. Begin Again also may be streamed through the OverDrive online resource available through Hennepin County Library.
