a musical but not so bad

Rating: 7/10 (6 March 2008)

Across the Universe is a good movie, the ending is a little cheese, it has some really well put out scenes, in other words it has a very good art direction, sometimes the movie focuses only in the art, on the music, half of the movie is mostly spent on the music, which is good because the music is great, the arrangements for the Bealtes songs are good enough and the images and the moments in the movie where the songs are placed fit in with the story, putting meaningful lyrics about the characters life is the way writers of musicals make sense out of the music and how music is the way an artist puts his life on his creations. The movie is a trip, i don't usually like musicals, but this is more like music video with great visuals and even better music.
