A Hard Day's Night

Whimsical, silly, and totally pointless, A Hard Day’s Night is both an easy watch and an easy thing to have on in the background. I’m more of a post-Rubber Soul Beatles guy, so this era’s music, while gone, doesn’t grab me as much, and the humor doesn’t always land for me. But it’s just a personal taste thing. This is one of those movies where there’s really nothing wrong with it, despite the score I’m giving it. It’s well made and captures the Beatlemania craze nicely, and never drags. If you like the Beatles, you kinda need to see it, but if you’re like me and you prefer later era Beatles, it won’t land quite the same.
