Sing is an animation movie, released back in 2016 from Illumination Entertainment.
I have watched the movie several times because of the interest I have in it. I am not the kind of guy that gets freaked of animation movies, but I found something really fascinating in this movie.
The storyline is quite inspirational and motivational, teaches much of moral about life.


Buster Moon

Sing is a movie focused on a guy called, Buster Moon (anthropomorphic koala), he got interested in music when he attended a musical show of one Nana Noodleman at a very tender age (6) with his dad, and that was the beginning of his musical ambition, not as a musician but a music promoter, he grew up and he managed to rent a music theatre that he attended when he was young.


Nana

I will make this movie review post short as I could and touches every aspect I like about the movie.

Buster Moon (koala) is a broke guy, trying to fix things the normal way, I wouldn't call it fake life but of course his life isn't perfect.
He has a secretary called Miss Crawly (an old fagged Lizard). Miss crawly was just the biggest problem of buster moon as she does not do a thing with effectiveness, she messes up almost everything.

The movie starred in lots of animals with distinguished amazing musical talents.


Johnny

Johnny (Gorilla) is a good guy that has a notorious father who makes him do notorious things his dad and clicks are criminals and they always make him join them in the act.


Rosita

Rosita (pig) is a woman with impressive musical talent, she has a great voice but always occupied with her family, because of her dozens of piglets, So, much of her activities are always done in her house.


Ash

Ash (Porcupine) is a young lady, singing as a backup singer for her boyfriend and she also got some exotic killing voice.


Meena

Meena (Elephant) I think she has the most awesome voice in the movie, she is a very young girl, always scared/shy of the microphone, she gets lost whenever she found someone starring and waiting for her to prove her unique talent.


Mike

Mike, I will call this guy a wolf hidden in a mouse. He has a very bad attitude, he only cares about money, nothing else, he loves cheating, though he also has a nice voice and he makes his living singing on the street.

One of the significant scenes in "sing" was when Buster moon had launch meal with his friend Eddie in an expensive restaurant.
He told his friend he wants to organize a Singing competition.


Eddie

He took the step of organizing a singing competition with the grand prize of $1,000, he packs some of his jewelry/valuable and put all in a jewel box, and let everyone know the box contains the prize, so everyone sees the lockbox has the prize, then he told his secretary to type and print the flyers.


Miss crawly

While the old miss crawly was typing her eye got removed and accidentally bounced on 0 buttons twice, that turns the grand prize to $100,000, she printed without checking and a standing fan in the office blew the whole flyers away through the window.

Humm! That was the beginning of the problem.
Moon did not know that the prize on the flyer was $100k, he woke up the second to see lots of animals waiting at the front of his theater for the audition. He was happy

That was another funny scene of the movie, just like normal singing audition that both cracked voice guys and guys with the real talent shows up just because of the money.
Moon did the auditioning and chose the best.
Buster moon got to know that the grand prize that enticed lots of participants were $100k after the auditioning, he was shocked and, he began to search for a way to get a loan of $100,000

Among the whole participates that have the quality, Meena messed up because of her fear and lack of confidence, but she later went back to Mr. moon and became a stagehand.

I love the quote by Buster Moon on the first day of the of the training for the competition.

''This contest is a war, this stage is the battlefield, your song is your weapon''. And moon continues to manage each of his resources.

He visits his Friend Eddie and found Eddie's Nana was still alive and still loaded with cash, he couldn't think anything rather than paying her a visit to fund the singing contest, and he did visit Nana Noodleman with his friend Eddie.

After lots of conversation, Moon promised Nana an attractive view that he will organize a musical show just for Nana (trying to cajole her to fund the show). In other to accomplish the promises he made for Nana, he had to steal and maneuver lots of things to make his stage super cool.

Mike got involved in a casino cheat scandal and, some bad guys were searching for him.
On the day of Nana's visitation some bad guy came to deal with mike, Mike told them Buster has his $100,000 ( prize for the contest) and they squash the Jewel box which the hit affected the fittings made by moon to beauty the stage and that was the beginning of the massive destruction of the building.

Moon's life got really fucked, everyone knew the box does not contain $100,000, everyone, including Nana, managed to escape the disaster and that was the downfall of Buster Moon.

That was the emotional part of the movie, I was shocked as well, a young man trying to get on his feet and everything got messed up at the edge of getting a sponsor for his idea.

All contestants went back to their various homes with a sober mind, nursing two heartbreak, Moon's lies, and the collapsed building, the bank took over the building, Moon never had a house, the building was his house so, he moved to Eddie's pool house.

In life, everyone must have a story to tell, everyone sucks at some point in life, having the feeling like "should I commit suicide or am I gonna do something great again"?
There is a common saying " every downfall have its own blessing in disguise, " and every hard blow is a chance to think again, strategize and get back irrespective the gravity of the downfall.


Meena and Moon

In other to survive, Buster moon opened a Car wash and, miss crawly still stay by him and his friend (Eddie) stood by him. They wash together.
On a fateful day, while they were washing, Mr. Moon heard a pleasant voice coming from his previous broken building, he decided to check out then he meets Meena ( the young lady that fears never allowed him to sing).
Singing at the debris of the building and that was the beginning of new thing in Moon's profession.

He decided to have an open field concert, he called every of his previous contestant and, they made a curtained stage putting little things together with the debris and fixed a day for the show.

On the day of the show, almost all chairs were empty, only the family of Meena and Rosita was present at the early time of the show but Moon never got discouraged he went for his desire.
Before the end of the musical show, the whole space got overcrowded and lots of people love what Moon did. Including Nana Noodlenoon, she was impressed and moved to buy the building and rebuild for Buster Moon.


Theater

Everyone has their own perspective on things and some people might watch and see sing as a funny animation movie but I watched and saw something else, the storyline is inspirational, motivational and encouraging.
It shows there ought to be difficulties when taken some decision but the determination for continuation irrespective of the situation is very important.
