The Beatles stormed through Europe's music scene in 1963, and, in 1964, they conquered America. Their groundbreaking world tours changed global youth culture forever and, arguably, invented mass entertainment as we know it today. All the while, the group were composing and recording a series of extraordinarily successful singles and albums. However the relentless pressure of such unprecedented fame, that in 1966 became uncontrollable turmoil, led to the decision to stop touring. In the ensuing years The Beatles were then free to focus on a series of albums that changed the face of recorded music.

"5/10. A real sleeper. As a big Beatles fan that has seen most of their biographies, this had to be the most anticipated that fell far short of expectations. Clips tell the narrative, but the result is empty and lacks guidance. Some new snippets from an interview each from Paul and Ringo. Starkingly little input of any clips from John and George. Instead, Hollywood celebrities like Whoppi Goldberg, etc. Like, the last thing I want to hear is Whoopi once, let alone twice, in a Beatles documentary!"

"Ok documentary. Didn’t feel supremely special, but they got some good interviews and great footage from the time period. It’s worth a watch if you like the Beatles. 😶"
