It's nice to McCartney and Starr making music together again, but the film mostly flops.

A really bad movie that exists solely to showcase McCartney's new tunes.

A lot of effort has gone into this film's production values, but continuity seems, at best, to have been a secondary concern.

The acting here is weaker than the slender story, but intermingled with all the silliness are some fine performances of McCartney-Beatle standards as well as three new songs.

Give My Regards to Broad Street is about as close as you can get to a nonmovie, and the parts that do try something are the worst.

Great music can't compensate for underdone plot and self-indulgent staging,

You could call it a self-serving film, were McCartney's complacency not so all-embracing: self-flattery requires at least a hint of self-doubt, but there's no trace of anything remotely that unsettling on McCartney's placid, Buddha-like brow.

Average story but great songs and set pieces.

Token attempt at street cred: if Paul doesn't get the tapes back, he'll be taken over by a sunglasses-wearing business shark.

Vanity project for McCartney. Director Webb has lots of style -- none of it his own.
