Summary: IM A BIG BEATLES FAN BUT.........
Review: .......The movie sucks. It really has no point whatsoever, and I really think they were on drugs and experimenting wirth cocaine when they made this film. If you really watch this movie it has no point, and is nothing but a bunch of crappy stuff thrown together. But not that I dont love the Beatles. They are the best. The album "Magical Mystery Tour" has some of their best music. But this movie isn't the best at all. "A Hard Day's Night" and "Help" have some sort of story to them, and are excellent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Let The Beatles take you away
Review: As usual I also have this film isn my video library. The Beatles' 3rd film was originally in 1967 on BBC-TV. The movie's BEST highlight is the scene were JOHN,dressed as a waiter, comes with a shovel in his hands, and feeds a moutain of spaghetti to a very obese woman.[This scene was ACTUALLY based on a dream that LENNON had during production] Another GREAT highlight of this fantasy filled film, is that it is the only time we get to see the ONLY PERFORMANCE of 'I AM THE WALRUS'.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Roll up! Roll up to the mystery tour....
Review: I like this picture a lot. Many have complained that it didn't make sense. If you look at it as an hour long music video, it's very good. While not as structured as Help! or Hard Day's Night, it gives the viewer a taste of what was going on at the time.

Compared to a lot of the assembly line creativity that's out there now, this is a masterpiece. The Beatles should be given credit for trying something original and different.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Beatles are waiting to take you away
Review: As with the two previous BEATLES movies i also have this film in my collection. Originally aired on BBC-TV in 1967. Although the film is not as strong in plot and continuity as the group's first two feature films it does have its highlights. The first is the scene where JOHN, dressed as a waiter, comes with a shovel in his hands to feed a mountain of spaghetti to a very obese woman [this scene was acutally based on a dream that JOHN had]. The second is that this is the ONLY time Beatles fans will ever get to see the performance of the classic song I AM THE WALRUS.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beatles take a break from being wacky
Review: I found Magical Mystery Tour interested and well done. It looks like a well-done home movie. Although it does drag in the middle. It has a kind Monty Python flare to it. My favorite songs were Fool on a Hill and I am the Walrus.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Very disappointed.
Review: Of all the billions, I am shocked that they have made no effort to provide subtitles.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Watch it in a window!
Review: Of course I love the Beatles but I always hated this movie. Until I got the DVD. This is how you are supposed to watch this - on a little screen. As such, it is a scream. Now I get it! They were magicians!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Yuck! How could the Beatles release this garbage?
Review: The ONLY good thing about "Magical Mystery Tour" is the music! The Beatles were incapable of producing a poor soundtrack. But this mini-movie was horrible, even if you're one of those who loves the Fab Four! Terrible plot, no acting. The best part: "I am the Walrus", the first-ever music video in the classic mode.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: George is the best !
Review: I love this movie ! It's hilarious... but it doesn't make much sense. That's what makes it so great. My favorite line is when John Lennon, as one of the wizards, says,"I spent a half an hour looking for the sugar !" You'd have to like the Beatles and the whole psychadelic thing to enjoy this movie :)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: OKAAAAAAY
Review: Dude! Pretty funky psycadelia. I like the little wizard dudes and the "Flying" & "Fool on the Hill" videos. Pretty fab taping on the Beatles part, even though it makes less sense than the Spice Girls (Yowch!)
