ThiefHott Too much of everything

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

D P Help! is the unloved Beatles movie. It's not as witty as A Hard Day's Night or as cute and dazzling as Yellow Submarine. Magical Mystery Tour has developed an IMHO unearned reputation as an "experimental" classic, and even the dour Let It Be is seen as a bracing look at the "real" Beatles. Help!, however, is remembered as the movie where the Beatles got really stoned and didn't seem to care how the movie turned out. This is a rare occasion where the Beatles were wrong in their assessment of their own work. The plot, while a tad manic, isn't the disjointed mess people claim it is, but a fairly standard MAD magazine-style parody of James Bond movies in which our heroes are chased around various exotic locales. The musical numbers are full of the quick non sequitur cuts that would become the stock-and-trade of The Monkees the following year, while the action parodies would influence both Get Smart and Batman. The Beatles complained that they felt like extras in their own movie, but if so the supporting cast carried the weight just fine. Leo McKern (who would soon play an equally bizarre antagonist in The Prisoner) is hilarious as the high priest of Kali (a character played seriously in Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom) and the gorgeous Eleanor Bron is charming as Ahme. Even better is Victor Spinetti, seen briefly in A Hard Day's Night and here given full reign as a mad scientist. It's a shame that the Beatles, all lovers of comedy, never made another dramatic feature, as they might have suggested working with the likes of Spike Milligan or even Monty Python.How are the Beatles themselves? Not bad, actually. The scenes where they were high out of their minds must have been relegated to the cutting room floor, because while slightly heavy-lidded they nonetheless deliver their lines with wit. What raises Help! above the other Beatle movies other than A Hard Day's Night, however, is the movie's visual style. Art director Ray Simms creates a mod look for the group's wonderful shared house, and cinematographer David Watkin makes sure the audience knows the movie is in COLOUR. The Beatles may have never *looked* better than they do in the recording session scene for "You're Going To Lose That Girl."(Note: the one aspect of the movie that has not aged well is the use of "brownface" for Indian characters. It's especially troubling considering George's later embrace of Indian spirituality. However, in both a very funny scene involving "experts" and the later scenes in the Bahamas the writers do get a few digs at colonial British prejudices. Still, these scenes may be troubling to modern audiences)

Gradur I loved the movie "Help!". First and foremost, because I actually enjoy the Beatles, even if I do not often listen to their music. I'd never particularly been interested in what they could do except their music, that is why I was particularly surprised to learn that they had shot movies. I enjoyed "Help!"; of course it is not the best movie of all time, and I was bothered at times but I loved humor there. I like that kind of movie precisely because it is not part of a particular kind, it's an outsider and that's what I liked. The plot is not amazing, far from it, but the soundtrack of the movie is awesome and it made me want to rediscover The Beatles. I appreciated the fact that Ringo Starr was put forward in the film, while he is rather put apart in the band. This is not the kind of movie that I could see many times, but it was fun and it made me want to see the other Beatles' film "A Hard Days Night".

miss-so The British musical film HELP ! Is a good movie for the Beatles fans because there is a wide choice of music, however I have absolutely not understood the story of this film I found that she did not really make sense and I prefer movies with a concrete history because I find it more difficult to dive into the movie and to be interested by the film when the story is 'absurd' if can say it like that. I find even though the characters were well integrated in their role and that some passage of the film was funny. I think this movie can be a enjoyable to looking with friends or family, but especially the ideal film to watch if you are a big fan of the Beatles!

inesjbl Help!is a movie filmed in color,a movie directed by Richard Lester. The movie was the second film after "A Hard Days Night". The film is set in the capital of England,London. The plot starts with a cult who discovers that the sacrificial ring is missing. Ringo the drummer of the Beatles band has it.It was sent by a girl, who's to be sacrificed as a gift. Help!is a charmingly goofy fun movie, the music is very good. Ringo becomes targeted by a group of obsessed oriental mystic people. The Beatles run away from London to the Swiss and to the Bahamas. Ringo of course is constantly on the run in this movie. I liked this movie,it's a nonsense movie and it's nice and funny, in addition it's filmed in color. Even if this was more than fifteen years it is an absolute must-see. The cast is excellent with of course the Beatles band,composed with Geoge Harrinson,John Lennon,Paul Mc Cartney and Ringo Starr. The storyline is exciting, the acting is enthralling. On scale of 0 to 10, I give this film an eight, I think it is a good mark. My recommendation about this movie it is well worth seeing! It's a great piece of film making,don't miss it. And finally,fans of the Beatles will no doubt be thrilled about it.Ines Jabla, School Albert Camus
