Movie Reviews of Two of Us
Movie Review: OUTSTANDING
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is exceptional in every way. The actors are completely committed, and I fully believed I was watching Lennon and McCartney interact. Furthermore--and something people have yet to mention--the screenplay is loaded with details of these two men from the period in which the movie takes place and written with a palpable warmth and love for John and Paul without being syrupry, cliched, or sentimental. As a die hard Beatles fan who has read more than 40 books on these two geniuses, this was the movie I had always wanted to see. The experience stayed with me for days. I waited for a long time to see the release of this film on DVD.Movie Review: Thoroughly Superb!
Summary: 5 Stars
As Edward Bloom (Albert Finney) says on his deathbed -- in Tim Burton's movie "Big Fish" -- as his son, William, finishes describing his father's death to him -- Edward smiles at Will and says that's exactly how it happens and dies.
If you have seen "Big Fish" this may make sense...if you have not seen "Big Fish" what's keeping you?! <grin>
"Two of Us" deals with the themes and issues that many Beatles fans may want to know about or interact with, and the film does an outstanding job of fairly dealing with these issues in a reasonable manner. I highly recommend "Two of Us"
Movie Review: Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
I am also one of those fans that watched this movie ten years ago and bought this because of it being so good. What can I say? This movie may not be based on a true story, but it is still a great film anyway. It feels like a Beatles fan's fantasy of what it would have been like if the two really hung out for the entire day together again. It also gives me a sad feeling, which it does all fans, to see John and know what was going to happen to him in just a few years. Wish that part of his life could be re-written in reality. Anyway, this is a really touching film for the fans.Movie Review: 'The Odd Couple"
Summary: 5 Stars
Absolutely excellent! Having written about this episode in my book [pardon the plug!] YOU SAY YOU WANT A REVOLUTION, I too have speculated about what might have happened. The scenario depected in this film is far better than the one I had in mind. For one thing, I didn't know that they went outside the Dakota -- in "mufti," so to speak! And....of course....wouldn't it have been "over the top" had they actually taken Lorne Michaels up on the offer that "Saturday Night"!Movie Review: JARED HARRIS IS FIRST-RATE AS JOHN LENNON!
Summary: 5 Stars
A must-see for all Beatles fans. This film is worth seeing alone for Jared Harris' outstanding portrayal of John Lennon. It doesn't matter that Harris doesn't exactly resemble Lennon; his mannerisms, expressions, posture, accent and attitude are pure Lennon. Best scene: Lennon in a local cafe verbally sparring with a stuttering fan as to whether Paul McCartney & Wings' "Silly Love Songs" is worthy of #1 status in America.
