Give My Regards to Broad Street

RS: 1of 4 Stars

Musical

Could this 1984 flop be the worst Beatles-related movie ever? It's dumber than Ringo's Caveman, maybe even dumber than the George-produced Shanghai Surprise. Paul McCartney, in the middle of his tragic Hawaiian-shirt phase, wrote and starred in this flaming pie of Vegas-style Beatles remakes, featuring Ringo, Linda, Barbara Bach and the misbegotten hit "No More Lonely Nights." Let it suck!
