"Good matchup, but although these are both Criterion-worthy classics, Pennebaker beats Lester." more ►

It’s been a hard day’s night, and I've been working like a dog.

Essentially an extended music video with so-called plot and characters as a flimsy scaffold for a 90-minute film. Would have been much better suited to a "concert film" without the contrived attempt at a story.

But as I'm neither a Brit nor a Beatles fan, there's a lot of stuff I'm sure I have a harder time appreciating than the intended audience.

I thought as a promotional piece for the Beatles it was good. As a movie it could have been better. Paul’s grand dad was the best part of the movie though.
