Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Junior's Groove
Great independent film with a lot of depth; tells the story of a piano prodigy, whose diabetic mother and crazy piano teacher are so dependent upon that they stifle his growth. The main character must use the creativity his imagination, with the help of friends, to emerge from the ashes of his hopeless existence.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - junior
a another great little film that should be seen by everybody.aka planet of junior brown the actors were always great you will remember this film for a long time,don't miss it



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Not what you'd expect
I first wanted to see this film because of the piano aspect involved but when I saw it I got something so much more. The movie operates on various levels: there is an immediate level that viewers can watch and be entertained by, and there is a deeper level that satisfies the artistic side. The first positive that comes to mind is the beauty in what's NOT being said. By that, I mean, that the characters are fleshed out in a way that allows them to convey a message between the lines of what they're saying. There are other scenes that are extremely memorable as well that I don't want to ruin for anyone. Definately watch it and definately look below the surface.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Strange, but good movie.
I saw this movie on tv a year ago. It's hard to say what this movie's about. Mainly a (mentally handicapped?) overweight boy who plays piano, has an over proctective mother with diabetes, and some strange dream-like things happen.
