I love the film. Sure, it's certainly not the best Beatles work out there, but so many scenes stand out and the music (as all the Fabs music was) is fantastic.
As Paul once said, it's worth having if only for the ONLY filmed performance of I Am The Walrus, but hell, there's loads of great stuff in it...
Personally, my favourites are the arguments between Ringo and Aunt Jessie, the finale (Your Mother Should Know) and George's 'Blue Jay Way' sequence.
Classic stuff :)
Shocked. And Stunned.
It's different. It's arty and out there. Only just got it myself. Watched only once. Love it. Going to watch it again this weekend.
Wish I could get Let It Be, it's the only one missing...
OF COURSE... I DO!! IT IS MAYBE THE BEST OF ALL FIVE BEATLE MOVIES!!IT´S FUNNY, ENTERTAINING AND ALL THOSE GREAT SONGS ADD IN A BIG WAY TO THE HUGE LEGEND THOSE FOUR MEN WERE!!EVEN STEVEN SPIELBERG RECOMMENDED THIS FLICK TO CINEMA STUDENTS!
shareI really adore this movie. I don't see why everyone is always complaining about the lack of plot. I don't see why plot is neccesary when you've got a great soundtrack, not to mention The Beatles!
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.
as a Beatles fan im biased to see the positives of this film
But being neutral, Magical mystery tour as a film for entertainment SUCKS BIG TIME.
Its a shame because, in competent hands of a qualified director, this could have been the movie equivalent to Sgt Peppers.
It has all... psychodelia, loneliness, old time ( Yur mother shuld know) and they shuld have added more songs from the period, like Hello Goodbye . All you need is love and Baby youre a rich man.
Each song culd have represented a vignette of some feeling or situation related to the times and it wuld have been da bomb.
Hello, Goodbye was at the end during the credits!!! IT was an awesome movie! I saw a music video for strawberry fields. IT was on the album (The song was) howe come it wasn't it the movie?
shareThe album was a US invention. The original soundtrack was a double-EP with the six songs from the movie. Capitol in the US added the other songs to fill out to an album.
I like MMT. I watched it again last night for the first time in ages. It's quirky, and it wanders a bit, but if you look at it as a long-form video instead of a movie, it's as reasonable as much of MTV (not that they show videos anymore.)
The songs could all be lifted out as stand-alone videos.
I just finished watching MMT for the first time in years. I admit its a bit weird but funny in a lot of parts and the musical sequences alone are worth watching.
