COMMUNITY REVIEWS

good submitted by sauerr on August 1, 2011, 6:29am this is a good movie for beatles fans

Ridiculous submitted by crazypockets on July 16, 2013, 1:27pm This movie is completely ridiculous, but in a good way. You can't help but laugh at it. The scene with their crazy house alone! And of course the music is great.

Help! is great! submitted by KidBlue on July 9, 2014, 7:57am This is a madcap, kooky, hilarious, funny, zany movie, with wacky dialogue. I even like it better than Hard Days Night! See it again today!

Help! = Amazing! submitted by sophiemarie on July 18, 2015, 5:30pm Help is probably just about the strangest film I have ever seen. But just the same it is one of the best. The plot is very strange and random but the music, The Beatles themselves and the acting is the best part! All you want to do is look at The Beatles, they're amazing and funny! To all the Beatles fans out there:

SEE THIS MOVIE!!

Funny with glimpses of greatness submitted by doctorfang on August 2, 2015, 6:43pm This is a silly, madcap movie starring the Beatles as the Beatles. It's a spoof of James Bond films, and just generally goofy, but has some moments that are truly hilarious -- many of which may be ad-libs by the Beatles themselves. Good stuff.

Hilarious! submitted by KatieD on August 5, 2021, 6:45pm This movie is insane and so much fun! The plot doesn't make a whole lot of sense, so don't waste time trying to figure it all out. Just enjoy the shenanigans that the Beatles get up to. I also highly recommend watching with the subtitles on because sometimes they speak quickly or quietly.

the beatles!! submitted by angie. on August 24, 2021, 9:39pm loves the beatles :)))

My 9 yo submitted by jibkidder on July 25, 2022, 10:42am My 9 yo son has become a huge Beatles fan, which is interesting to me because the only Beatles albums I mess with are McCartney II and the George triple vinyl. I couldn't believe how much he enjoyed this film from a million years ago, he was rapt. Tried showing him the Monkeys TV show after, which he wasn't very into.
