I don't mind when he plays "dark" roles. One Hour Photo is one of my favorites.
It's just that since this one is a "family" movie I wasn't expecting him to be
the bad guy.

I loooove it when he plays roles like that! robin is nice he just likes to play
on the dark side sometime. (OHHHHH IS THAT YOR LIGHT SABER OR ARE YOU JUST HAPPY
TO SEE ME!)LOL! I'm not sure if he got his ears pierced or not my guess would be
they were the clip on type of earrings....I didnt care for the red hair much
myself maybe its because I am used to his natural color. --- In

I saw it on Sun with my Mom. We both loved it, but were a little dissappointed
with Robin's character. I was expecting him to be a little... er... nicer.
Although, I do like him with red hair! :P And I can't help wondering if all
those earrings he was wearing were real....> > > To: robinwilliams@...:

emotions. But if it does that well, what's the problem? Such a film is "August
Rush," a drama about three people connected by their love of music -- among
other things.The title character is a boy played by Freddie Highmore ("Finding
Neverland"). Unhappy in an orphanage, he runs away and finds a questionable
mentor in Robin Williams, as a shyster who uses musically inclined children to
make street-corner profits.Unfolding at the same time is the story of cellist
Keri Russell ("Waitress," "Felicity") and rock musician Jonathan Rhys-Meyers
("The Tudors," "Match Point"), reunited after their one-night stand years ago.
Gee, what could their connection to the youngster possibly be?Even if that's an
easy guess, "August Rush" has genuine feeling that today's movies offer too
rarely. Equally commendable is the effort by director Kirsten Sheridan (daughter
of "In the Name of the Father" filmmaker Jim Sheridan) and her cast to get the
music aspect right. The actors really do look musically skilled, not an easy
thing to pull off. Terrence Howard also fares well as a social worker concerned
with August's well-being.If you want a dose of heart at the movies this holiday
season, give your own heart to "August Rush." You won't be disappointed.(Rated
