THE BEATLES MOVIE PAGE

The four movies with the Beatles! Some count
"Let It Be" as a movie, but I don't!!

A HARD DAY'S NIGHT(1964)

A really non-sequitar of a movie! Methinks the
only reason for this was to put The Beatles out
in the public's eyes, and to showcase some of their
music!!

Of course the only reason for watching this is
for the music, although there is some humor every
once in a while! But some of the greatest music
ever made is here!!! B

There are several specials on this:

Commentary -
None of the guys are in this!

In Their Own Voices:
The Boys talk about making the film!
This is more entertaining than the movie!!

You Can't Do That -
The Making of "A Hard Day's Night"!
Hosted by Phil Collins! With input from:
Roger Ebert, Peter Noone(Herman's Hermits),
Roger McGuinn(The Byrds), Victor Spinetti,
Alun Owen(Screenwriter), Norman Rossington,
Debbie Gendler(NJ Fan Club President), Jilie
Harris(Wardrobe Designer), Walter Shenson
(Producer), George Harrison(voice only), Richard
Lester(Director), Micky Dolenz(The Monkees) &
Michael Friend(Director, Film Archives)!
This also has the song "You Can't Do That"
that was in the film but cut!!
Another entertaining special!!

Trailers!

From IMDb.com:

Excellent production, script, acting and what BRILLIANT
music composed under the duress of filming and touring!
John Lennon's tour-de-force (he wrote 11 1/2 songs on
the album, Paul McCartney wrote half of "And I Love Her"
and all of "Things We Said Today"). The script captures
perfectly the joys and draining madness of Beatlmania.
The Beatles prove in this film that they are deserving
of the fame and adulation. - MrVB

After watching "A Hard Day's Night", I was hoping
for another fun movie from the Boys! Unfortunately,
this was pretty bad! Almost no recognizable songs,
a plot right out of Pink Panther, poor acting and
just an all around bad movie! If it wasn't The Beatles,
not to be punny but this movie coulda used a lot of Help!
I would give this a D, but because of the Fab Four,
I'll give it a C

There are several specials here:
The Beatles In Help!;
With input from George, John, Richard
Lester(Director), Ringo, Eleanor Bron,
Paul, David Watkin(Director Of Photopraphy),
Betty Glasow(Hair and Make-up, Peter Cheevers
& Chris Diggins(Stunt Doubles); Julie Harris
(Costume Design) & Steve Barron(Music Video/Film
Director)!
This has the song "Act Naturally" in it, with
just Ringo, no Buck Owens!!

A Missing Scene;
The Restoration of Help!;
Memories Of Help!;
2 US Theatrical Trailers!

From IMDb.com:

...What kind of movie, you might ask? Comedy?
Spy Thriller? Or just zany madcap nonsense? It
doesn't matter. I've seen it many times over the
past 30 years and it just gets better with age.
The music of course, is phenomenal-and you don't
have to be a die-hard Beatles fan to appreciate
this musical comedy masterpiece.

Rating: ***** out of ***** - bbrasher1

This is no better than the last movie, Help!
But it does have the wonderful song "Your
Mother Should Know", as well as the title
song and "Fool On The Hill"! C

From IMDb.com:

I am a bealtes fan, as others are,too (Duh). I
thought some parts of this movie trailed off
into nothing, but in all it was pretty good.
the midget, the fat lady, even the stripper
(Censored). If your a fan of the Beatles or
weird film making style rent this movie, but
if you just want a movie with solid story and
plot then, well you're the fool on the
hill. - wierzbowskie

This animated movie isn't the best movie ever made!
It's not even the best anime ever made! Hell,
it's not even the best Beatle movie made!! Very
colorful, and some good music, but not a movie that
I would watch again!! It doesn't help that none of
the Boys are doing their own voices!! C+

From IMDb.com:

I bet you're thinking, "another Beatles movie?"
but that's not really what this is. A wonderfully
vibrant and gorgeous cartoon, and a treat for the
eye and ear. This is how vivid and bright all
cartoons should be. Great soundtrack of course,
and the Beatles make a real cameo at the very
end. Watch if you are a Beatle fan like me, or
simply if you want a fun cartoon. They did a
wonderful job remastering and cleaning it
up. - Adriane
