When I saw its trailer, I got really excited and after a while, I thought it would be another film with a great premise (a premise I hoped I thought of myself) but has problematic writing overall. But I was wrong, it went beyond the premise. I enjoyed the romantic angle, and I appreciate the moral dilemma it presented. More than the music, I find this film satisfying. It says a lot about the music industry, with multiple layers, and they are not even hidden. It has enough combination of humor and genuine deep emotions.

I'm not even really a Beatles fan. But I really enjoyed this movie. Himesh Patel and Lily James both deliver great performances and have wonderful chemistry together. Kate McKinnon actually gives a solid performance and is even quietly intimidating in some scenes. It probably doesn't go as far as it should with its premise. But it's so amiable and charming with what it does accomplish.

"Yesterday" has its premise all figured out. It just doesn't know where to take it, what to do with it when it gets there, or what it wants to say.
