Beatlemania

An ambitious, visually-arresting and exhaustive musical that manages to entirely encapsule 1960's and 1970's attitudes (Vietnam, free love, etc.) to the tunes of 20 or so covers of The Beatles. There is not much to speak about the acting, but it's engaging and filled with emotion and wild conviction. I think it works as a tribute to the Beatles' music rather than trying to merely use it. Final Grade: B+
