Saw this at the cinema yesty(the first movie I've seen at the cinema that wasn't a kids film since the woeful experience of the dark knight in 2008).

Look, any Beatle fan will love this and I did! The restored sound and footage is amazing.
The humour of the lads is well captured and it was emotional for me after the final gig at Candlestick - they hated touring by then but I really felt for them as that part of their life was over.

I reckon that non Beatle fans will enjoy it simply as a snapshot of history. The scenes of carnage at the gigs and appearances when thousands of young girls are crying and screaming really shows the impact the guys had on the world.

After the end credits, the whole filmed Shea Stadium concert is shown in full restored glory. One of the greatest events of the 20th Century, and the boys sound good.

I was buzzing afterwards. Loved it

Looking forward to seeing this - saw an CBS special with Ron Howard, Paul and Ringo this morning and the clips looked real god.
