Movie Reviews of The Beatles - Magical Mystery TourMovie Review: Ahead of their time once again even for 2005 Summary: 5 Stars
The Magical Mystery Tour DVD, VHS, LP, CD or Ep are all together. See how you smile and laugh for a while, see how much fun. You need to buy it! Young Steven Spielberg. Inspired than he grew from it. Colorful scenery, guitar dreamery, spaghetti flying on your TV, even you Mother should know about this DVD. Go out and find it.
I have three- the LP, CD, and DVD and almost forget my picture disk on my shelf for posterity, strawberry apples, 12 inch plastic gimples, silvery micro disk, saw it on a laptop over the drink, icelandic green ones blackberry signals for all to see. Are you buying? But before I have to run, the soundtrack is also fun, George's paisley stratocastery, Paul's bass line mastery, Ringo's a rich man on the snares, and John's voice is indescribable but perfect. You'll see its really a period piece on UK black pool nights, a limey's keg party not one flew over the cuckoo's bus trip, nor any freaky 60's clip, but jolly old fun for u.s. with an English spin.
I am the Carpenter!
Summary of The Beatles - Magical Mystery TourThis 1968 oddity is probably a film only a total Beatlemaniac could love, but it carries both musical and historical resonance. It also gives intimations of what would happen in the next 30 years as artists gained more and more power over how they were presented. The roots of virtually any rock star's vanity project (including Prince's Under the Cherry Moon) can be traced to this little Liverpudlian home movie. Fresh from the success of their films A Hard Day's Night and Help!, and still under the influence of the intoxicants of the era, the Beatles set out to make their own fancifully psychedelic project. What they got out of it was, essentially, a knock-off album with a few good songs and a lot of filler, which is more than can be said for this alternately self-indulgent and mildly amusing British version of Ken Kesey's magic bus tour. Using some of their favorite actors (including Victor Spinetti, who was in their first two movies), the Beatles make an alternative British travelogue, stopping occasionally to sing songs like "I Am the Walrus" and "The Fool on the Hill." Strictly for completists. --Marshall Fine
