Let It Be Reviews
Ultraman: Rising follows on many prior iterations of the classic Japanese character... Its creators hit just the right tone for a story that's ultimately about finding your place and caring for others.

…a rather sour backwards look at the dying embers of the world’s most beloved band…

There’s a beauty in the containment of "Let It Be": Just one month and a dozen or so songs crammed into 80 minutes of magic.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 30, 2024
Let It Be definitely offers far more such smiles and moments than its gloomy reputation could ever have led us to expect.

Let It Be is suddenly a joy. Everything is here: the love as well as the strife, the incredible detail of their songwriting, and the daftness that was intrinsic to the band and helped oil the wheels of everything.
| Original Score: 4/5 | May 15, 2024
At the very least it鈥檚 a fascinating historical document. However, the fly on the wall songbook approach is draggy and repetitive...
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 12, 2024
If you never saw 鈥淕et Back鈥� because you didn鈥檛 have the time, 鈥淟et It Be鈥� is for you.

For all the troubles the movie reveals, it鈥檚 nonetheless a joyful compendium of creative energy.

If Get Back traded in unfiltered minutiae that had a kaleidoscopic emotional impact, Let It Be is the succinct overview that does more or less the same in a smaller, smarter package.
| Original Score: 8/10 | May 9, 2024

There are no more charismatic performers or immaculate musicians on the rock scene today than the Beatles, and to watch them running through more than a dozen good tunes is a pleasure. Let It Be may not be much of a movie, but it's a fine concert.

The music, which I prefer in smaller doses, is no doubt splendidly in their style and a final scene in which they play on a roof in Burlington Gardens makes the comforting suggestion that they can still stop the traffic.

Beatles fans, saddened by the news of the group's apparent dissolution, should get a certain melancholy pleasure out of Let It Be.

Ever wonder what a history making session looks like in real time? Peter Jackson and Michael Lindsay-Hogg give us a front row seat into the turmoil and joy with the Fab Four while they make history

It's all there... a fascinating study of the rot in the relationship among four musicians who made show-business history.

It might be fun if it were not so grainily photographed, so incomprehensibly recorded and, at times, so erratically synchronised.

Come to think of it, for a dull film it certainly was exciting.
| Original Score: 3/4 | May 9, 2024
Let it Be knows that the public, fans or not, wants to hear the songs and see The Beatles in action, and that is why it culminates with the improvised recital on the terrace of the building. [Full review in Spanish]

The documentary, their third feature appearance, is none too artfully made... But the film is arresting.

It makes for the warmest and most engaging hour and a half of film I've seen in weeks, maybe longer. It is also an immensely interesting glimpse at these four pleasant and talented young men who constitute so large a hunk of social history.
