Review of Help!

Help! (1965)
6/10
Help! A better script needed!
17 September 2018
First off the locations are great, awesome songs but...it is too bad that someone in the Beatles camp didn't put forth the idea of taking an extra 6 months to rewrite the screenplay. Possibly hire someone like Terry Southern to pen the story. I have no problem with a silly romp, as long as the silly romp is well written with a solid story. This film survives only on the basis of the great songs and watching the lads in the height of their success and in the prime of their lives. Someone missed a great opportunity to make this a unique gem rather than a half assed follow up to a really great 1st feature.
