Yesterday

What would you do, if something happened and seemingly everyone has no recollection of one of the best known groups ever? That would be the Beatles in that case, if you were wondering. And add to that that you would be a struggling musician - which would only add to the already quite high confusion.

Now this movie flows along as one may expect (if you have accepted the concept and suspended your disbelief, because not only is no one aware of the Beatles but they have been erased from everywhere except our main characters brain) ... which is either great or confusing to watch.

Danny Boyle does a really good job with a one punch movie tag line. The main actor is really good and while the love story is so obvious it hurts, everyone can enjoy this ... I'll call it fairy tale ...

I'm 26 years old and I've never really been a Beatles fan before. I knew who they were and how they are the greatest band of all time, but I never actually sat down and listened to their songs. Recently, while going through some personal hardships, I started listening to some of their songs and holy s***, I was blown away. So then I started going down the Beatles rabbit hole, watching interviews with them, reading news and of course listening to more of their music. I lost my younger cousin last year, he was only 20 years old, may he rest in peace. We grew up together and we were essentially brothers. And so reading about John Lennon made me feel the same way I did after losing my cousin. And then I heard about this movie. Having no real expectations, I watched it. This movie is a nice feel good movie. No crazy plot, no crazy action, just a simple premise with decent execution that gets the job done. That's all it really is. But to me, it felt almost like therapy. I felt some part of myself healing after watching this movie, so to me it feels special. I would recommend.

Saw it at my cinema in Lovran, Croatia just a few hours ago, so it's still pretty "fresh" while I'm writing this. The whole idea is great, haven't seen those yet in mainstream cinema. The plot is pretty much straight-forward, with likeable characters, great music (of course) and when the movie was over, it left me with good feeling and a smile on my face still singing Hey Jude.

All actors are really good, but Lily James is so adorable in this movie! She shines in her character and steals every scene she is in. Liked her the most (obviously).

Take your girlfriend/boyfriend/friends/family to see this rom-com fantasy music comedy in cinema on a big screen, and even if you won't like the movie, you will sing Beatles songs after and feel good about it (guaranteed)!

Among other things, specifically The Beatles would be strange, only of course if you were one of the very few who had prior knowledge of them. An interesting concept caused by a blackout phenomenon that is never explained; which is fine, as the goal is not to describe why, just what it would be like.

The music is fantastic obviously, and huge kudos to Himesh Patel for doing all his own singing. The movie is generally a feel good flick with an underlying love story. There's nothing else that is really spectacular about it, so to me this was a good movie made by one of the more creative filmmakers out there.

My favourite scene has to be near the end when our main character meets with that one specific musical icon in his old age. Makes one think how differently things in the world could be depending on some people's life choices.

I went into this wondering if they were going to explain the whole premise with it being a dream or such? Was he going to get caught and crucified for it? Was he going to get the girl, lose the girl? So many movies are fixated on realism and difficulties and negativity. Yes, he faces several difficulties. But, the movie is light and beautiful with fantastic music. If I want realism, I watch a documentary. This is what I go to the movies for. Really well done!
