The Beatles: Eight Days a Week
This story tells about the Beatles, who appeared to be different and influential during those earlier periods, as they appear to have been a 20th century musical phenomenon. The film tells about a realistic look we live through that band that suddenly appeared and began to rock the musical world. This documentary gives the masses a lot of answer to their success, and how they control the fame and the world of music.

A timely, important documentary, packed with unfamiliar footage and using a refreshingly new approach, just as concerned with recording a remarkable cultural flashpoint as a musical revolution.

Given the subject matter, this still feels fresh thanks to rare/unseen footage.

The result is a treat.

The songs are still great. The foursome's waggish chemistry is still a wonder. But there's a lot of old ground, even old grind.

Don't expect trenchant analysis or deep insights into the group's creative process. Do revel, however, in the gleeful tumult and the gorgeous music.

It's revelatory to see what devoted friends they were throughout this unimaginably challenging time.

[Howard seems] as if he were intent on making a film for anyone who tuned in to The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964, fell in love with the four adorable mop tops and regrets all the long-haired plonking about with sitars that came later.

It all feels a little glossy, but who can complain when the vibes are so good and the tunes so catchy?

A valuable entry in to what's become a sub-genre.

Ron Howard's documentary rightly keeps coming back to the music and the band's delight in making it. Good move. It truly is a joy forever.

90 percent familiar and a bit hagiographic as well, but just try watching it without smiling.
