COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Genius parody of the Beatles submitted by doctorfang on July 26, 2015, 10:05pm Starring Eric Idle, with cameos from George Harrison, Mick Jagger, Paul Simon, and many more, this is a work of pure genius. Clearly created by true fans of the Beatles, the attention to detail in the similarity to Beatles film clips, costumes, etc., is remarkable. This is a hilarious movie with some surprisingly lovely tunes.
Hilarious

This movie is a beautifully funny early mockumentary - earlier than This is Spinal Tap.
If you enjoy anything by Monty Python, you will like The Rutles.
According to Eric Idle, the Beatles liked it too.
