Let yourself enjoy this witty film.

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2019)

I saw a lot of one star reviews here for this movie, which could give a person cause to pause before going to a theater to see it. But I have learned that one star ratings, especially those of just one or two sentences (worst movie ever! etc.) usually have nothing to do with quality and everything to do with, um, let's just say 'other considerations.'
So anyway, I really enjoyed this movie. I had to accept that it is a fantasy rather than sci-fi, because sci-fi usually tries to give some sort or explanation for why something happens but here we just take it as it is. The dialogue is mostly witty and fun, and the characters got my sympathy. I had a slight problem with the two lead characters having always been platonic, but I was able to put that aside. Plus I really liked seeing the third lead character, the Mini Cooper (okay, yes, I have owned one for nearly twenty years).
One reviewer stated that the ending was totally predictable, and part of it was, but another part astonished me in its originality, so I have to disagree with that assessment. And yes, most of the songs presented were better when the Beatles did them, but just set that fact aside and enjoy this harmless and entertaining film. Oh, and if the thought of someone of a non-white ethnicity singing these songs makes you rage with explanation points, just give it a one star review without bothering to type the obligatory hateful review.
