Wow, can't believe people are complaining about the Opus being bad


If it were some amazing masterpiece, then he'd be Bach or John Williams!

He's a high school music teacher who was never good enough to make it to the big leagues. Why on earth would you expect the music he produces to be amazing or masterful!?!? The fact that his opus is only subpar is an important aspect of the character.

Im not sure why they think its bad. Personally movie or not I think its a decent piece of music....And considering that its being heard for the first time performed by kids and likely hobbyists...its not as if there was time for Mr. Holland to change certain parts.

The people who don't like it are Trump supporters.

People who have to inject their politics in every conversation are troll. They have the depth of a sheet of cardboard but not as much personality as an empty box.

Bull! People who don't like it are the same people who never liked It's a Wonderful Life.
Basically the same story. Both are a Wonderful Opus!

It wasn't a bad piece at all. He'd probably be able use the performance to gauge the rough parts and make improvements
