Critics Consensus: I thought you might like to know that the Beatles (aka the act you've known for all these years) are ill-served by this kitschy, aggressively whimsical fantasy film that's most certainly not a thrill.

Reviews

Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

The best moment? Aerosmith offering a chilling rendition of "Come Together." The most love-it-or-leave-it moment? Steve Martin doing his comic shtick while performing "Maxwell's Silver Hammer." The worst moment? A million-way tie between everything else.

Frampton sings the Beatles' songs "as they've never been sung before," it says in the press release. Well yes they have been, as a matter of fact. And better.

A daft attempt to further conceptualise the classic Beatles album by linking its songs via a contrived connective storyline. The attempt fails miserably.

Like a box of candy left on the beach, this movie is a gooey, sugary mess. But buried in the glop are a few nuggets.

A laughably bad movie.
