It's OK

Warning: Spoilers
I'm a big fan of Paul McCartney and The Beatles and I do have a copy of this movie on my shelf and to be honest I think it's OK. It has a good plot and it follows it after the songs but despite the great songs that the man had made it tends to stretch in order to fill the time limit of the movie and sometimes you forget what the plot is even all about. First it's all about the tapes being 'stolen' and then next we see Paul McCartney day dreaming during 'Eleanor Rigby' with some parts of the main plot still used for a few seconds. It could've been called 'The Day in the Life of Paul McCartney' with the main plot as its main focus of course, after all some scenes do really show his daily life via dream.

The settings of the film is really nice and I do like the 'Eleanor's Dream' scene that was featured. Some of the instrumental music was fine as well. Shame there wasn't too much time with Ringo Starr in the film but it is all about McCartney. It's an OK film but the addition of songs, although nice to listen too, tend to drag away from the plot and makes you forget about it. But still I enjoy this film and its a recommendation to Paul McCartney fans or Beatles fans.
