Almost A Great Movie

"Almost Angels" is basically about Tony Fiala, a young boy who wants to be a part of the Vienna choirboys. He then gets to be a choirboy and is bullied by an older boy named Peter. But then they become friends. Yeah. This movie is kind of confused on what it's main conflict is. First, the conflict is Tony's father being against him joining the choir, then he just lets him join the choir. Then, the conflict is Tony being bullied by Peter, then they just become friends. And finally, the conflict is Peter losing his voice and now can't sing. You see what I mean? This movie also has bad pacing in some parts. Sometimes we just watch the choirboys sing and we watch the boys perform a whole play. THEN at the end of the film, we watch them sing a whole song again. Maybe I'm complaining as this is a film about choirboys but they could've pasted the film a bit better. But other than those two main complaints I have with it, it's a solid film overall. The actors are fairly likable enough, the music is pretty good, it's a relaxing sort of movie. It's an ALMOST great movie you could say. Check it out as it is available on Disney+ and see what you think.
