This movie is very underrated. I believe that the people who rated it didn't really give it a chance.
The chemistry between Lisa and Charlie, played by Molly Ringwald and Patrick Dempsey, seems legitimate. The only thing I wish were different would be Julie and Daniel admitting each other's feelings for one another. Other than that, it was a pleasant and enjoyable film overall.

Very sweet picture. Best of all, we get to hear Molly sing. Not a lot, but still.
OK, the story is fairly predictable, and the music is hardly great, though I've heard much worse singers than Molly Ringwald in my time. But I enjoyed this film, which is full of quirky characters and situations. The movie producer's nephew Donny steals quite a few scenes, and there's a very odd workman whose scenes give the impression that possibly some subplot involving him has been cut. That's not to say the two leads do a bad job, and I enjoyed watching both Molly Ringwald as Lisa (lyrics) and Patrick Dempsey as Charlie (composer). Lysette Anthony does her best with her role as the new woman in Charlie's life though the script perhaps could have been a bit more subtle where she's concerned.
I can imagine this film as a thirties screwball comedy, or perhaps as a stage farce, and it might have been funnier and better directed in either case, but I still find it oddly enjoyable.
This isn't a film that takes itself too seriously, and if you come to it willing to be entertained rather than looking to rip it to shreds you probably won't be as disappointed as the 1/10 reviews suggest.

I was looking through what movies Patrick Dempsey had been in on this site, and I found that he was in this and that Molly Ringwald was in it too, and I really like her too. So I decided to get it, it was only £1 something for a new copy on amazon. I had read bad reviews of it but it was so cheap that even if I didn't like it, it wasn't like I was wasting money, and I'm glad I got it now, as it was quite good and I would watch it again.
It wasn't the best movie i've ever seen, and it was slow and a bit boring in some parts, and Lysette's character even though I think she's a good actress (I've liked her in other things too like The Bill), her character was very annoying. But I did like Molly and Patrick's characters in this, and that Donnie guy was quite funny.
It really is worth watching if you're a fan of Patrick or Molly, or even both like me. Patrick looks gorgeous in it! So I think even if I hadn't of liked the storyline at all, I still would have enjoyed watching it for him.
I really thought it had some cute moments in it too, especially at the end!

Face The Music is a movie which might be enjoyed by those 17 and older. Molly Ringwald's and Patrick Dempsey's performances make the move. Face The Music is truly a ho-hum film. It is just life. However, it is a lighthearted movie in which there is no thinking, just experience it. It is a movie to play cards to or play board games to. Anotherwards, Face The Music is background music/noise. You can join the film practically anywhere and not miss any excitement. Face The Music will at times put a smile on your face. Sometimes, that is all you want from a film. Make popcorn, and serve sodas during the movie and enjoy the entertainment. I give Face The Music four thumbs up.

- GoofsWhen Charlie introduces Lisa to Daniel, he calls her Lisa Hunter Hollis. With Hunter being what was Lisa's married surname and Hollis her maiden surname, it should have been Lisa Hollis Hunter instead.
