Hilarious Movie

Rating: 8/10 (22 September 2009)

No one can truly call themselves a Beatles fan without watching this movie. While there really isn't a plot, it's very funny. The jokes are random but still flow nicely so you don't feel lost. The train ride, for example, is full of randomness (ie: John sniffing the Coke bottle, the boys messing with the man who sits in their compartment) as are the interviews they're giving. You can tell that they all have wonderful senses of humor (many of the shots had to be re-shot because they wouldn't stop joking around and changing the lines like when John said "I declare this bridge open" he kept change bridge to something else). The accents can be hard to understand,especially George's, but all you really have to do is pay close attention. Since I'm way too young to have been able to go to one of The Beatles' concerts (which, honestly, is a good thing considering you couldn't hear over the screaming girls), this and watching old episodes of The Ed Sullivan Show are the closest I'll ever get. A Hard Days Night is a classic comedy that every Beatles fan should see.
