The Worst Film Ever

Simply Perfect

Sadly Over-hyped

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

This movie is utterly the meaning of dramatic story in the academic Definitions . because of the slow rhythm of introducing & non-exciting initializing perhaps you would be bored but its realistic again!as if jude(AMBER HEARD) repeats & emphasis of her boring trip,aim & actually life . she was backing home to find the answer & her Root, but finds the mistakes in her root!father could not makeup his personality as we see him trying to upgrades his conditions in the wikipedia in scenes. you willfeel yourself in depth of story & characters DURING THE MOVIE. a point which making me hopeful is that we are see somebodies believes in morality against cheating persons in us social & that is real again.

It touches on quite a few interesting topics in a nice way that might give you some insights. It also has a few funny lines and set-ups.But, it kind of feels like a lost chance to do more. I liked the idea that it doesn't want to be this "big-drama" movie. But, everybody doesn't have to be hysterical all the time to explore issues deeper.Especially Chris Walken seems a little wasted - sure, he's playing an old guy trying to find a place in a new world (and a I _do_ love how he keeps editing his Wikipedia page), but somehow you miss his passion. Some people do lose their passion when they get old, but for most, there's at least glimpse still there, and I, for one, would have liked if it came up.Also, the end, while leaving with a good "message", or moral of the story, feels a little forced and comes by too quickly to let you feel the main character, which is Amber Heard (not Chris Walken, though he does get first billing, he's actually a supporting character), "clicking" to what she needs to do.

Although there are story elements to "One More Time" that I liked and it's a real shame that the film hampers itself by making it so difficult for the audience to care about the folks in the picture. To me, it's almost impossible to make a really good film given this serious handicap.When the film begins, Jude (Amber Heard) is awakening from a one- night stand. She's overslept and is late for work...and folks are waiting and waiting for her to arrive. Apparently, this isn't unusual for Jude. What is unusual is her soon leaving New York City to go stay with her father, famous old-time crooner Paul Lombard (Christopher Walken). Apparently, their relationship is stormy but she has no choice as she's about to be thrown out of her apartment for not paying her rent. But things aren't all rosy back with dad as their relationship, and every relationship in this odd family, is severely strained. Paul is a serial philanderer who only thinks of himself, Jude's sister is a demanding and rather high-strung young woman and the step-mother is nicknamed 'Satan' by her step-kids. Through the course of the film, most of these folks remain true to their life patterns...destroying themselves and those around them. And, by the end of the film, there's a vague suggestion that perhaps Jude is tired of all this. If this summary sounds a bit bleak and depressing, then you pretty much get the picture, though it at least has some nice singing throughout the film.The movie has some nice acting. While I found it hard to believe Walken could be a crooner, it was an interesting character and a nice stretch for him. Heard also was able to show that she could not only act but sing rather nicely. But nice acting and an interesting location shoot in the Hamptons aren't enough and the film is one I wouldn't rush out to see but might perhaps might catch when it appears on Netflix one day when you are looking for an undemanding film. Not bad....but also not particularly enjoyable either.

"Just because you can't be someone new doesn't mean you can't do something new" Jude (Amber Heard) To see Christopher Walken sing as a has-been crooner is to remember he started as an entertainer who could dance pretty meanly on the stage. Here he features an original song written by his character, Paul Lombard, in his sunset years hoping for a new musical start.One More Time is indeed about one more chance, not just for Paul but also his 31-year old daughter, Jude, who has some singing/writing gifts she is weakly promoting. Typically, she has to deal with her father's fame and her own inability to stay anchored in a place that's both physical and figurative.Like dad, Jude doesn't always do what's best for her (both of them sexually vulnerable), and like him she needs another chance as the title suggests. The most satisfactory moments are when the two go after each other's weaknesses, a form of tough love that allows both actors to sharpen their craft. When he comments that they live in "the poor part of the Hamptons," you are aware that they both live in an alternate universe where "poor" is a relative term. Like their lives, not everything is as it really is.The most normal conflict of the film comes when Paul's wife, Lucille (Ann Magnuson), starts divorce proceedings because of Paul's infidelities. Out of this discomforting circumstance comes a chance for conservative daughter, Corinne (Kelli Garner), to show her more aggressive side, another case of a character getting a chance.One more time is a small film that will leave Christopher Walken fans wanting more of his sneer and world weary irony, yet as a washed up but returning pop entertainer, his character seems to fit the actor one more time.
