Help

Actors:  John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Leo McKern, Eleanor Bron, Victor Spinetti, John Bluthal, Roy Kinnear
Rating:  8 out of 10, Since I hear Beatles music all the time I had forgotten just how charismatic the boys were at the height of their fame when this was shot.  The movie itself is a huge mess – as if a highly stoned member of the Monty Python tried to make a Bond picture.  It is still so much fun though, a real guilty pleasure.  The Beatles look impossibly young and the iconic music still stands by itself. 
MVP:  Ringo could actually act – a very little bit
