what a horrible and horrible film . the bad collection of cliche i have see in a long time . not that i saw much . i leave the theatre screaming after about 40 minute in search of a stiff drink to soothe my nerve . meryl streep be awful a usual . how many hurt and tortured expression can 1 person have . aidan quinn talent be a so often totally waste . and who tell gloria estefan she could act . try to be polically correct this movie still enforce racial stereotype . ( brave inexperienced lonely music teacher teach underprivilegded kid violin in poor neighbourhood school ) . the kid weren not even cute . just write in to suit the appalling script . aaargh . wes craven really make me cringe for once . real horror this one .
