“Drive It Like You Stole It” should win the Oscar for Best Original song. It’s such a catchy tune that also plays well into the film thematically. Not to mention, the scene it is used in is arguably the best individual scene of 2016.

Throw in a slew of catchy songs, and a brotherly bond between two characters that will stand the test of time, and Sing Street sings beautifully.

The real surprises may be Carney’s collection of acting unknowns who make up the band. Their camaraderie is infectious, and watching them create music and find fulfillment gets to the true heart of “Sing Street”.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 25, 2022

It's quite underwhelming when a film about making music features original songs that everyone in the story goes gonzo over, but then the songs aren't that memorable. Sing Street doesn't have that problem in the slightest.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 15, 2022

Within the many themes of the film. Sing Street is a testament to the true importance of music. The simplicity that through any bad situation, music is always at your disposal and will always understand what you are going through, when no one else does.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 14, 2022

Filled with the liberating jubilation of making music...

Sing Street is an uplifting musical comedy about an Irish boy seeking rock and roll stardom 30 years ago. Young actor Ferdia Walsh-Peelo is phenomenal. Not to be missed.

Writer-director John Carney of Once returns with another music-influenced project, using original material that captures the '80s spirit with such aptly titled tunes as "Drive It Like You Stole It."

| Aug 11, 2021

If "Drive It Like You Stole It" isn't caught in your head for days after watching then you're doing something wrong.

Sing Street is a self-consciously "cute" film about a sweet Irish cocoon-in other words, a fairy tale.

| Feb 26, 2021

Celebrates risk taking and underdogs in a story that is as joyful as it is tuneful.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 3, 2021

Much more intelligent and mature than its youthful cast would suggest.

| Original Score: 9/10 | Dec 5, 2020

Sing Street is a charming little love story, with fun songs, both originals and New Wave classics from the period. It will make its way into your heart and probably stay there for a while

Writer/Director John Carney has another winner here.

Sing Street should be watched at full volume and with an open heart.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 29, 2019

Yes, the drama can feel a bit contrived. But it's delivered and packaged in such an entertaining way with memorable characters. It easily lands amongst the best films of the year for me.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 7, 2019

Carney and company make songs in loads of different 1980s genres, and all work perfectly. Combine that with a few nice, softer moments and a literal "fist-pumping" ending, and you have a film that's hard to dislike, even if it could stand more harmony.

| Original Score: B | Jul 9, 2019
