The cast veers from overly theatrical (Rogers) to amusing (Molly Shannon as Ted's wife Shannon, a woman who speaks her mind without thinking about the consequences) to spot on (Harbour, DeWitt, Basche, and several others).

The cinematic equivalent of catchy soft-rock elevator music.

The title is the least of the film's problems; far more significant is its failed attempt to make its protagonists endearing instead of obnoxious.

As for the singing, it's pleasant but unctuous and, frankly, made me squirm.

Top Critic Molly Shannon, as the raunchy wife of the group's most reserved member, is the best-known actor in the cast and its most obnoxious.

Top Critic The actors are well cast and effective. As a film, Sing Now, shot on location, is as attractive as its cast.

Top Critic Its dramatic freight lurches, and intriguing characters (a sex savant, an Indian human beat box) are sold short; a thinning of the ranks might have helped.

Top Critic Sing Now or Forever Hold Your Peace is a poor man's Big Chill, proving that navel gazing isn't the sole province of early baby boomers.

If, when this gang lights into Our Love Is Here to Stay, you feel you've entered a very special chamber in Hell, rest assured you're not alone.

Top Critic Do we really need another movie with thirtysomethings who ache to re-live their college years? C'mon, guys, grow up!

Top Critic Sing Now or Forever Hold Your Peace has a marvelous personality to it that does wonders to alleviate the problem areas that plague the script.

A transparent Big Chill rip-off where all the soap opera's characters share the same toxic personality. Jumpin' Jehosaphat!

Top Critic A Big Chill without the dynamite acting, Bruce Leddy's debut indie Sing Now or Forever Hold Your Peace takes the yuppie manifesto's whiny self-absorption and ties it to a sitcom sensibility.

Top Critic One desperately wishes they'd take their signature greeting literally: "Shut up!"
