REVIEWS

Review by John Baran (posted on 7-Mar-2008)

This is a forerunner of the great British comedies of Monty Python. Of course, the Beatles were just being the Beatles, but that is what they did best. From England to the Bahamas, this film is a phenomenal romp, brilliantly written and directed. It even has a product endorsement in the form of a billboard for V8 juice. I'm probably in the minority in saying it surpassed "A Hard Day's Night," but that is truly how I feel.
