Movie Reviews of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Movie Review: BeeGees plus Beatles Equals DUD!
Summary: 1 Stars
I Love The Beatles. They one one of my all time favorite bands, and I love Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club band the album, and I Love The BeeGees. And Peter Frampton is great as well. So with all of these, how could I hate this movie? Well, I have to say that they just ruined the whole concept of the story in this movie. George Burns, though great, was a horrible choice. Steve Martin, though hilarious, was another bad choice. The music could have been better as well. A great band covering a great band should have made great music, but, it fell way so short. It wasn't the Beatles and it wasn't the BeeGees. It was, something that resembles that white stuff in the corner of your mouth after falling asleep in a dry room. It was pure 100% crud. Oh, and Aerosmith as the Evil Band. Yeah, that was so stupid, i couldn't even find the heart to laugh. Whatever happened during this process, it was not productive or creative in any sense of the word. It is 100% horrible. Do not watch this unless you want your impression of either band tainted forever.
Summary of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sgt. Peppers grandson and three other guys form a band and fight bad guys.Music from the beatles. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 06/21/2005 Starring: Peter Frampton Steve Martin Run time: 113 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Michael SchultzIf it weren't for a couple of inspired performances, as well as the time-capsule weirdness of it all, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band would be definitively unwatchable. This misguided effort to dramatize the classic Beatles album (the Fab Four had nothing to do with it, thank goodness) also includes tunes from other Beatles LPs, strung together in lumbering '70s rock-opera style. Peter Frampton, then at the crest of his brief run at the top, stars as Billy Shears, with the Bee Gees wearing the glossy day-glo band jackets from the Pepper album cover. Earth, Wind & Fire turn in a spirited revamp of "Got to Get You into My Life," and Aerosmith thrash their way through "Come Together"; but most of the performances are pretty awful. Out-and-out novelties include Steve Martin doing "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" and George Burns (but of course) warbling "Fixing a Hole." This high-profile 1978 flop helped kill the hot streak (Saturday Night Fever, Grease) of record and movie producer Robert Stigwood and sink his RSO movie-music empire. --Robert Horton
