Review of The Soloist (2009) by Dylan D — 06 Oct 2013
The Soloist is a fine film from every point-of-view. Although it's not the same sort of positively uplifting film as August Rush, it does make for a strong picture that unapologetically captures a slice of life without much in the way of glitz and glamour to make it more audience friendly.
The Soloist doesn't work as escapist entertainment but instead as a thinking man's movie that takes audiences into a world that's unforgiving and never quite what moviegoers accustomed to wide-release motion pictures have come to expect.
Defined by its pair of top-notch performances, The Soloist is a film worth visiting for anyone with an open mind and desire to experience a film that's far different than the norm.
