Atom User Reviews for Yesterday
This might be my new favorite movie. Must see for any Beatles fan, but anyone else will still like it cause it's got a great story.
Finally a creative, fun, happy, clean film with excellent wit, cast, and music. Absolutely loved it. Going again tomorrow.
Garbage. Disrespectful towards The Beatles and anyone who knows anything about screenwriting. S**t.
Must see for Beatles lovers, fun for everyone. Two interesting twists I didn’t see coming.
Just lovely, and whereas I figured it would have some humor, this was generally far funnier than I was expecting. Also, for type of story that is generally predictable, there were two genuinely unexpected moments. Very sweet and fun movie.
Movie just wasn’t good. You watch the trailer and there seemed to be so much potential in it but most of the clips in the trailer wasn’t even in the movie!! They had great potential for this movie but absolutely ruined it by turning it into a love story, like CMON!!! They never even finished a whole beetles song, and the beetles main songs were not in it such as yellow submarine and come together. It was a very big disappointment
Great movie!!!!!
Phenomenal movie!
perfect
Loved this movie so much , original and worth the watch .
I'm not sure what to say except, "meh." It was cute, but I felt like it tried too hard. Ed Sheeran was funnier than Kate McKinnon who couldn't decide on a character. Which sucks because I'm usually a fan of hers. Lily James and Himesh Patel did an awesome job and were very believable in their role, but I still can't go above 3 star.
Wonderful! Going to see it again
I was not planning to see it and then a friend wanted to go. I’m so glad I didn’t miss it.
Unexpected story and enjoyed the Beatles music.
A fun story backed by the greatest songs ever. A lovely tribute to The Beatles and a true treat for Beatles fans! Loved it!
Memorable
Loved it
Great sing along. Wonderful.
Awesome movie
Charming, Lovable..... Meeting a John Lennon that didn’t die and seeing him as if he was alive today was Just a Perfect Touch for us Beatles Fans who always wonder what if - Happy Ending reminding us that the World is a Better Place with the Beatles Music in it !
Excellent movie.! It was a lot better than I thought it would be.
You will enjoy it very much
Loved it! Music was great!
I was so looking forward to seeing this movie. How could you not with the entire world never hearing of the Beatles and their great music except for one down and out person. The premise was outstanding for a romantic musical comedy. Unfortunately, within a half an hour the entire movie comes off the rails as it disintegrates into a boring , by the numbers, predictable “how did they completely ruin this movie!” Avoid.
Great movie! Will see again!
Loved that it was a clean movie without bad language!
cute show, unexpected story line. very enjoyable.
Great acoustics
Super well done. Will make Beatles fans remember why they love the Beatles. Along with making new fans!
A must see for Beatles and want to be Beatles fans.
It was exactly what I expected. Saw it because of The Beatles. What's nice is, another generation is exposed to the timeless music The Beatles created. Will I be seeing the movie again, probably not, but I will continue to listen to The Beatles!
The story is a bit far fetched but if you’re a fan of the Beatles music, that’s what it’s about. I loved the music, acting Ok.
Loved the premise of the movie! Great story and plot
Such an original story, I loved every moment. Himesh Patel is absolutely amazing!
I really enjoyed this movie, it was funny and sweet!
I liked it! But for me something was missing... Really original idea but somewhat incomplete!
Fun and clever story, just loved it! I’ll be seeing it more than once. It moved along at a good pace. Some unique and intriguing twists and turns in the plot. Must see!
Really liked the concept, was looking forward to a sudo-Beatle experience. Story good, but just didn't ring my bell!
go see it
fun, creative story
Finally, an original idea from Hollywood
It was aight
Just a wonderful feel good movie!!! It is a fantasy and well written!!!! I loved it!!!!!!!
The movie brings back the Beatles music into our world. Everything else is forgiven.
What a wonderful surprise! A totally fun and inspiring movie, a great tribute to the Beatles and their import on the music world--and Britain--wrapped up in a really sweet love story. Loved the cast, the songs, and using "Hey Jude"--all 7+ minutes of it--as an end credit song. A wonderfully written and produced alternative for the summer.
sooo disappointed as I was looking forward to seeing this. It felt as though it had the right ingredients to make it work but fell short with putting it together.
Even better than we expected. This movie has it all. So glad our friends recommended it.
Good music but cliche plot
Great movie concept just don’t try and overthink it, lead actor can really sing and his acting was great too
Much better than I expected! I loved the ‘John’ touch.
Metacritic
It’s not as if the people never existed, only the band, and the logical conclusion of all this speculation is exactly where the movie takes itself. I don’t want to spoil the party, but it feels like exploitation.
Yesterday is too trusting, too confident in its silly dream, and not fun or passionate enough.
Yesterday, a sweet and well-meaning comedy, is a cautionary tale in taking on such an iconic musical output without adding much new to it.
