Ok, but I don't entirely get it...

Rating: 5/10 (29 June 2019)

Seen this tonight & was intrigued by the premise of the film following the trailers.
But after watching I'm kind of left wondering what to think of this film. Like it had good parts in it, but also had parts which made the film hard to take seriously, let alone the film itself, which I think simply couldn't decide what it wanted to be.
The film is about a young man who after being hit by a bus around the time the entire earth lost power for 12 seconds, wakes to find that nobody knows about 1960's Band, The Beatles.
I found the concept interesting, but very weird, far fetched not to mention too off the rails. The parts when the young man tries to look up The Beatles, Cigarettes or even Coke Cola was while funny at times, was annoying & pretty stupid for its own good. John Lennon suddenly being alive was the cherry on the cake, the film clearly takes place in 2018-2019/Present day, yet because of an outage, The Beatles to Coke-A-Cola & other things suddenly became forgettable. Why & what? It made no sense !
The Beatles being the main reason for the sudden disappearance was 1 thing but plot convenience things likes Cigarettes, Coke Cola to even Harry Potter was just dumb, funny, but dumb & got old very quickly. Another niggle was why The Beatles were forgotten by a simple power outage, all trace of them went missing, their songs, web pages, Wiki page etc. Yet everyone, even the internet, cleared all trace of them. I'm it's not as if the whole earth was plagued by some toxic nerve or trance gas!
The good points were the scenes in how the guy got famous & how he got together with the love interest at the end. The film was surprisingly enticing & engaging despite the plots hole, weirdness, overall undecided execution, plot & script continence.
Overall, this film simply couldn't decide what it wanted to be and was plot holed throughout. While enticing it was the premise and stupidity of the film which made it hard to take seriously. 5/10
