This biopic is about John Lennon's teen years, specifically focusing on his relationship with his aunt Mimi, who raised him, and his estranged mother, Julia. Paul and George are there, but secondary to the story. Some decent acting but feels like a made for TV production. Probably the best Beatles biopic, which is sad, because they deserve much better. Why does Ray Charles get Ray and Johnny Cash gets Walk The Line while the Beatles have Backbeat, Nowhere Boy, and Birth of the Beatles???

Aaron Taylor-Johnson plays a convincing John Lennon, but I can never see Thomas Sangster as Paul McCartney. Though made out to be a tragic genius, John Lennon's upbringing wasn't very interesting, at least that's how Nowhere Boy portrays it. When are we going to get that biopic about the whole fucking band already? There's a great story.

The baby-faced Thomas Sangster nearly steals the show in the much smaller role of Paul McCartney.

This is an enjoyable look at John Lennon's early life. Aaron Johnson gives a good performance in the lead role and Kristin Scott Thomas also shines. I recommend this film to non-Beatle fans as well as fans.

Johnson does an incredible job as young John Lennon, and I believe that choosing to remove this as much from the context of A BEATLES MOVIE made the film all-the-more emotionally powerful.
