    Showing "Something" in the trailer and then taking it out of the final cut was a grievous error of judgement on the editor's part. Who else was looking forward to seeing it in the movie only to come away feeling short changed?

    Yes I was disappointed that "Something" was not in the final cut of the film. I also have wondered about the performance of "Help" it was more of a screaming match than a version of the actual song. However I have also thought that perhaps it was performed the way it was because the character was breaking down and maybe he was actually crying for HELP. Regardless I very much enjoyed the film and have watched it several times and two of those times when it was released in the theaters.

      I believe this would coincide with the reality that the Beatles were feeling at the time they released Help. The Stardom had begun to overwhelm the opportunity for artistic expression. It was no longer what it was when it started. Great element which I think was very intentional in the movie.

    Himesh has a beautiful fantastic voice and does the Beatles songs the proper performance they deserve. The only thing lacking were the incredible harmonies the Beatles (John, Paul and George) had in the songs which were not recreated in the film. One example was SHE LOVES YOU with those great harmonies on the "YEAHS" and the "WOOS" Himesh only sings one part. Perhaps they could have overdubbed him doing all the parts

    The recording technology at the time is what disinterested me in the Beatles. Much like Black Sabbath, I can't stand the originals and wish they could be remastered, better.
    I believe the song should transcend the artist. That's why I like these versions of the Beatles work - along with the soundtrack to Backbeat - better. It goes that way with a lot of covers. Example: Everyone I know says Chuck Berry' - Jonny B. Goode could never be improved on after the Marty McFly and the Starlighters performance back in 1955. Can you say different?

    I don’t wanna be a hater but ‘Yesterday’ literally makes no sense at all in so many ways. I adore the Beatles and this film is like trying to admire something you know nothing about. I would loveeee to see a ‘Yesterday’ that realistically changes the events of history, like effects on genres and future music that the Beatles had an effect on, not Ed Sheeran and Coca Cola lmao

    This movie sucked sooooo bad. But it wasn't because of the songs, Himesh (amazing actor!) and the rest of the cast. It truly was because of the way the movie went storywise. It's ending suuuuuucked.
