  • Must Go!

    A masterpiece!!!!

    by Jaylynn444

    My boyfriend and I were both "Wowed" by this beautiful vision Director Julie Taymor brought to the screen. How brave to use a virtually unknown cast (except for Evan Racheal Wood and the surprise cameo appearances - which I won't ruin for you!), who just blew the entire theater away! They were all exceptional actors, awesome singers, and they all had such chemistry!! And as a little added bonus, Jim Sturgess (the actor who played Jude) is hot, hot, hot!!! Keep an open mind (It's NOT Sgt. Peppers from the 80's, thank God!), and don't get too judgemental about the different take on the Beatle's songs, because aside from being updated, modern, and awesome - Paul McCartney himself said "What's not to like?" when asked if he liked it.

  • Must Go!

    all you need is this movie

    by LadyHawke47

    beautifully constructed, elegantly thought through, deliciously cast, with the best soundtrack ever in the world. Taymor, the Beatles, and the 60s. It really is great.

    I absolutely LOVED this movie!! I lived through that time and it was both wonderful and heartbreaking to return to those times through this movie. I knew all the songs by heart, loved the different versions done and thought the actors were great and the singing also. It was so great to see a few seconds of Joe Cocker and loved the Hendricks and Joplin characters. Evan Rachel Wood has the voice of an angel and Jim Sturgess is too cute for words. I will never forget this movie and have already ordered the soundtrack. Bono was incredible as well. If you lived through those days and were involved in the music, tha antiwar movement and the whole 60's experience, you must see this movie. Those days truly were "the best of times and the wosrt of times", and this film captured so much of the feelings in that time.
