Surpassed my expectations

Rating: 10/10 (20 October 2007)

First of all I never grew up in this era, therefore I will never now what it is like to live amongst a real war happening. So what does that mean, nothing. What matters is that this was a film made to inspire anyone who ever sees it. I am a dreamer like Jude, Lucy, Max or anyone living then or living now who seeks to discover. Love is what I want, it is what you want, all of us need it. All of us need to be understood and understand why living can be so BEAUTIFUL, yet so hard to get through that one day. Across the Universe isn't solely about Beatles covers, the underlying message it gets across is all we need is love.
Yes, this movie to me deserves an excellent vote because I have never seen love like this. I have felt it, but this was quite different. For the first time in a long time my eyes, ears, mouth, and heart were open. Walking away from the theater it was almost as if I stepped out into the world for the first time. To imagine how I must have felt as a baby leaving the hospital, who brushed my head first, who was the first to look in my eyes and say I love you. Probably my mom.
The thing here is this is just another movie, but it was like magic or something you could never expect to see again. I do not now how I would convince anyone to see this nor do I wish to. But if I did I would illustrate to them a series of captivating pictures taken of the world we live in, friends and family they have grown to love, and tell them Across the Universe is more than a musical.
