The film's most obvious asset is a splendid soundtrack containing dozens of songs from Lennon's solo career...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 7, 2008

A powerful statement about how in a country of "democracy," the peace keepers are deemed the most dangerous to civilization...

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jul 10, 2007

An excellent documentary in charting how celebrities can use their public status for good, especially if they have the guts to turn their backs on what made them famous for a greater good.

| Jun 21, 2007

The breadth of interviews was quite good, and the film goes to great pains to situate Lennon within the wider political framework of the day. Everyone from G. Gordon Liddy to Geraldo are trotted out to either decry or justify the treatment that the Nixon

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 7, 2007

It's as gripping as any thriller and as moving as any drama with the added fascination of the unfathomable relationship between John and Yoko.

| May 25, 2007

Um belssimo documentrio que nos faz lembrar de que, por ter existido, John Lennon fez deste um mundo melhor.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/5 | Jan 31, 2007

An entertaining, lightweight (sometimes too much so) documentary about Lennon's deportation case

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 25, 2007

If anything this film proves that song can have more impact than a little toe tapping and tub-thumping.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 30, 2006

...though I was familiar with the songs, I never really understood the message. I do now.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Dec 13, 2006

What promises to be a provocative account of the late Beatle's involvement with the American underground delivers precious little in this Yoko-approved documentary.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 29, 2006

Lennon's spirit, like his music, shines through this movie like a beacon.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 24, 2006

An engaging and informative film about the period in the life of the former Beatle during which he emerged as a political activist and, consequently, a thorn in the side of the Nixon administration.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 10, 2006

Looking back, the Nixon administration's muddling seems almost comically inept, except that, much like today, the costs are so unspeakably high.

| Nov 9, 2006

The film draws upon news footage, old song recordings and interviews with his friends to craft a portrait in immense, rewarding detail.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 9, 2006

It serves as a primer for what Lennon was and what he believed and what he did.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 1, 2006

The film paints with swaggeringly broad strokes, the basic thesis being Lennon = good, government = bad.

| Oct 28, 2006

It's well worth taking a look at how a fascist-like government operates in America.

| Original Score: B | Oct 25, 2006

In any case, evidence of Lennon's weaknesses, as an artist or a human being, in no way undermines the value of his work, nor the argument against bureaucrats fighting secretly against him.
