Review of Yesterday (2019) by Franzhcritic — 06 Jul 2019

I don't doubt that most Beatles fans will feel nostalgic at all of their favorite songs, but as a film itself, it leans too heavily on sentiment, being so mawkish I could sometimes feel it in my gut. It felt like a movie that shouldn't have been PG-13, that should have added more grit.

I could even say it shouldn't have ended so happily. Not a bad film, it has a solid premise, just weighed down by the cliches.
