Movie review – “A Heartbeat Away” (2011) ½

The worst Australian film I’ve seen in ages – makes no sense. It’s a small town but developers are bad? Why can’t the marching band move down the road? Why does the son have to run the band? Would a mayor agree to risk a development for a bet? Nice photography, dreadful story, over the top handling - Isabel Lucas isn't even shot that prettily and she can't speak dialogue. None of it makes sense, the determination to be a feel-good-crowd-pleaser has caused the film to abandon logic.
