Is it good to learn English by watching movies and listening to music?
 
I would say that watching films and TV programmes can be useful. Listening to music isn't necessarily a great idea because lyrics are often ungrammatical - they are written the way they are to fit the rhyme and rhythm of the song.
 
OH! Thank you for pointing it out! I thought that I can learn some native words through listening to music.
I didn't think about they would use some words in order to rhyme!! Now I know!

Note my corrections above. You used a total of five exclamation marks in your post. None of them was really necessary, and using two of them at the end of a sentence is definitely not required.
 
You can learn from listening to music, but remember that grammar comes second to metre in a song.
