Disappointing - preposterous scenario

Rating: 3/10 (16 November 2019)

As a huge Beatles fan, I really wanted to love this film, but ended up not even liking it. Not only was the basic premise of the collective consciousness of such a globally familiar band and creative force suddenly being erased always going to be too much to swallow, but there was such an absence of chemistry among the leading actors that you didn't really care what happened anyway. The key scene where Ed Sheeran was allegedly humbled by hearing the Long and Winding Road just felt embarrassingly contrived.
Simply left me with the feeling I had fallen prey to clever branding by association with the emotive appeal of a topic I genuinely love.
Not recommended.
