Have you seen Across The Universe?

Question

How'd you like it?

I've been a Beatles' fan since they first came to America back in the early 60s, and normally I cringe when I hear copies of their songs...but I thought this movie was amazing!!!! It was incredible how the songs fit into the story so well...or how the story was built around the songs so well....whatever! It was great!

Answer 1

I agree a great movie! Although, I have this to say to anybody else interested in the movie. A few of the songs and themes seemed forced. The acting was by no means phenomenal but held their own and I felt valuable to the story. While the songs were different they were very enjoyable and intriguing, pulling you into the story. You can nitpick at it's shortcomings all night but if you watch without preconceived notion and just enjoy the ride. It then becomes very enjoyable and a great movie experience. I ended up loving the movie, and plan to buy it when it comes out.

Answer 2

I really liked the supporting cast and nearly every rendition of the songs in the movie; I was particularly fond of all the pieces that Sadie did, as well as Jojo.

However, I really just did not like the two main characters. They both annoyed me so much. So, if I ignore those two characters, then I give the movie a 9 out of 10.
