Across The Universe


There was a lot of attention surrounding this film when it was first released. Many people felt that re-making the brilliant music of The Beatles, and adding a story to them would ruin the songs. Adding a love story seemed even more far fetched. But in this review, Roger Ebert gives Across The Universe strong positive feedback. Ebert calls Across The Universe "A bold, beautiful, visually enchanting musical". He states that the cinematography went particularly well with the music. He also adds the the love story is not outdated or boring. As a fan of The Beatles, Ebert believes that this movie is not only a well done, original love story, but that it also does justice to the Fab Four.
