All You Need- and get- is love with this enthralling movie.

Rating: 10/10 (2 April 2008)

Across the Universe was spectacular. I saw it last week at my friend's house. She told me before the movie started that the first 20 minutes or so would be confusing, and boy, was she right. But, after that, I was singing along to all the songs I knew and learning the songs I didn't know. I found it utterly enchanting, especially "For the Benefit of Mr. Kite," "I Have Just Seen A Face," "All My Loving," "Revolution," and "I Wanna Hold Your Hand." "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" was touching, regardless of the scene Prudence was in or the unlikeliness of her NOT getting trampled when she is walking through the groups of football players tackling each other. "Revolution" was amazing because although Jude's message was good, the way he delivered it ticked off Paco, (hehe funny name... Paco!)Lucy, and the rest of his followers. But.. He is a shagger (0_o). This movie was absolutely wonderful and I love the ending. I recommend that everyone see it. (Although some material isn't appropriate for young children)Die Hard Beatles fans, like myself and many of my friends, will love this beautiful movie about love, war, and how music can bring everyone together. <3 <3 <3
