It didn't have to be like that. [Full review in Spanish]

Across the Universe proves to be a strikingly relevant experience...

Imagine that an eminence of creative surgery kidnapped the love of his life to return it transformed into an exact replica of what they hate most. [Full Review in Spanish]

Boring and at times soporific. [Full Review in Spanish]

Through choreography, animation and all kinds of digital effects, the vignettes are used as supports for a script that, by itself, would never take off from the ground. [Full Review in Spanish]

All the musical numbers have their own temperature and the narrative digression is the order of the day, inscribed in a fabulous explosion of colors, music and dance choreography. [Full Review in Spanish]

Across the Universe is a platinum long-play that makes a kitsch exquisite Jacques Demy caviar. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 28, 2019

If you're willing to love it, you let an ambitious film like this in and you let its faults grow on you. All you need is love indeed.

Across the Universe is a good-natured (if sometimes enthusiastic to the point of corniness) romp.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 15, 2018

The songs are jumbled here, and this may sound like nitpicking, but you can t explain the chaos of "Helter Skelter" or the sad melancholy of "Let It Be" without first touching on the hopefulness of "All You Need is Love" and patience of "Dear Prudence."

What a bloody mess.

| Dec 15, 2018

Universe's generic storyline and literalist approach to the songs pull it down. Even a relatively simple love song like George Harrison's "Something" outclasses the relationship it illustrates here.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 15, 2018

It's a little slow going in the start, but once their engines are revved up, every swirl and lick are thought out with care and love...

| Dec 15, 2018

If only...Across the Universe is simply a good film that easily should have been an unforgettably great one.

| Original Score: B | Dec 15, 2018

If you're going to reinvent songs, you cannot go wrong with the Beatles, even if John, Paul, George and Ringo have been replaced by Evan, Jim, Bono, Joe Cocker and others in a revolutionary way.

| Dec 15, 2018

Those beautiful Beatles songs have been given a bland Broadway makeover that robs them of their power.

Hair was bad enough, but this is a load of dandruff.

| Dec 14, 2018

This one blew me away.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 14, 2018

Logically, I know that love isn't all you need. For the hour and a half I spent rewatching Across the Universe, though, I thought it was.

| Oct 24, 2017

Unfortunately, Across the Universe never transcends the fundamental problems inherent in the concept.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 18, 2011
