Review of Yesterday (2019) by Cinemacrush — 03 Nov 2019
Oh boy, how do I review this one. Well, first off, if you're expecting exciting Danny Boyle and don't care TOO much for the Beatles, don't even bother. The acting is fine. The idea is great. The Beatles music is great.
It STILL comes out incredibly 2 dimensional. Boyle has such a knack for making things exciting. For instance 127 Hours has less going on that this film does, and isn't much to the story. But with the usual Boyleness, it pulls out great excitement and a fun viewing.
'Yesterday' just kinda takes a brilliant idea and meanders around with it. If you're a big Beatles fan, you will find a little charm in it. I would say for lighthearted viewing for Beatles fans only.
If the music wasn't as good, or the Beatles jokes, I'd likely have given it a 2 rather than a 5. The Beatles hold this film up, plain and simple.
