This is definitely a movie worth your seven bucks. Though the film started out with a haunting kind of appeal with Jude (Jim Sturgess) singing "Girl" in the beginning, the movie slowly progressed to now one of my most loved pictures so far.
The plot had many twists and turns that revolved around the Vietnam War and how it had an effect on many of the characters that somehow were drawn together under one roof (especially 'Prudence' that came through the bathroom window).
What really got me to love this movie was how the director integrated the Beatles music into various scenes in the movie. From portraying Uncle Sam to sing "I Want You", to Max (Joe Anderson) singing "Hey Jude". In the end, the remake of the Beatles music used in this film is almost as good as the originals. Not only was the music in the movie mind blowing but the visuals and special effects were top notch. If you are a Beatles fan or not, this film is guaranteed to get your attention.
However, there are some people that still don't understand the concept of 'Limited Theaters' and then complain about it while giving this movie an F even though they haven't seen it. Word to the un-wise, don't bitch about this film because the movie hasn't reached your eyes yet. Wait until the film comes out on DVD or video, then you can bitch about it.
Until then, give credit to all the people that helped make this movie. It's a lot harder that you think to make a film solely on the work of the Beatles music and lyrics. Hey, even Paul McCartney enjoyed the movie so why not you?
