yesterday, seems like a M Night Shyamalan film -- POST the Village :(

Rating: 7/10 (20 June 2019)

This film is poorly edited. Delete ALL scenes with James Corden . Showing them in the trailer is the ONLY thing you see in the film, with no explanation or follow up. They didn't even make it seem like he was having a nightmare! there's other things that are popular ( albeit with diminishing returns in today's market) but never purportedly heard about. Kate McKinnon plays a good heartless 2nd manager. Yet the interview cut short by her, again makes no sense to the story line, as her character knows notta of any involvement of the Beatles.) Ed Sheeran plays himself, no acting involved, so a safe bet, yet in this film only because Chris Martin of Coldplay turned it down. Lily James (of Downton Abbey fame) is really the only reason this film stays afloat, besides ofc the music of the Beatles. I like that their music is played pretty much solo, except in two key scenes with little accompaniment. Another poor direction is the chemistry between the two protagonists, just didn't seem convincing enough to achieve their "union" in the latter part of the film, before then seemed right on target. There are 2 points which I don't want to totally give away for the film, one being the Beatles complete exclusion,(again the James Corden scenes are totally misleading & only garner attention to see the film, yet if one does decide to spend their money, they will be disappointed, in this regards. ) Near the end is a "HODOR" incident (a GOT fan shouted out at the appropriate time in the theater, Cool moment.) On the 2nd screening,one week later, additions are made at the end to supplement the couple & in the future, their two kids. Finally there is an attempt to bring closure to the Beatles, which using CGI, but I leave it up to the viewer to decide just how "comforting" he is to them.
