Dalido "Help !" is a movie about and starring the Beatles. It is difficult for us to give it a genre : it is an absurd and/or burlesque movie, like for example in England a few years ago with the Monty Python (Their influence in the comic field is compared to that of the Beatles in music.); or currently with film directors like Quentin Dupieux. The plot isn't really important here, like "Rubber"(by Q. Dupieux) : The story of a devil rubber killing people (it is more or less something like that). But here, the lack of a plot is a pretext to show music videos between crazy scenes. We can consider it a Road-Movie, because in fact, it is a road-movie (even if we can not talk about Road- movies before "Easy Rider" in 1969 by Dennis Hopper, except perhaps for "Pierrot le Fou" by J-L. Godard in 1965). The famous rock band goes from England to the Alps (Ausrtia) and the Bahamas (in Nassau) because of an Eastern Cult track Ringo to sacrifice him to a goddess but, before killing him, they must paint him red. It is because Ringo is wearing a sacrificial ring that he can't remove. The Fab Four always have to escape to stay alive. then other people will join their quest : police men (Scotland Yard) without any weapons; an Eastern woman who easily fell in love with Paul McCartney; a mad scientist needing a Nobel Prize, etc.Personally, I love that kind of movie and I like this one too because it is a good one after all. It well represents that 'British humor' even if the movie was directed by Richard Lester (American), his touch is perceived with the editing where scenes and video-clips are well linked together; in a way that is not surprising. This is interesting, if we want to extrapolate, "Help!" reminds me the masterpiece "Man with a Movie Camera" by Dziga Vertov (in 1929) off course not for the Kino-Pravda! But only with the musicality from pictures.

thomas enlt "Help!" is a great movie. Of course it is difficult to do better than "A Hard Day's Night" which was beautifully made but still, it is a good movie. First of all, "Help!" is starring the Beatles themselves ! They are quite gifted as actors ... The story takes place in three different locations: in London, in the Swiss Alps and in The Bahamas. A young woman must be sacrificed by a sect for their god. To be sacrificed, the woman must wear a ring but the ring is missing ... Guess on whose finger the ring is ? Ringo Starr's ! Until that moment, The Beatles are chased by the members of the sect. In the movie, every Beatles has a character trait of his own. John is the sarcastic one, Paul is the lover, George is the miserly one and Ringo is the one everyone picks on. To sum up, this movie is burlesque from beginning to end with a bunch of improbable situations, The Beatles at their top, without forgetting the splendid soundtrack. I hope you enjoyed it or you will enjoy it !

carlamariedelfau Even if you're not a fan of this emblematic rock group – The Beatles – I'm pretty sure you will agree with the fact that this movie is a must see. The fact is that it's not the plot that makes this movie a must, but rather the amazing acting of those four strong personalities. The truth is that you will want to see this incredible masterpiece – in my opinion – because of the soundtrack, but you will soon realize that you will not only appreciate what you will hear but also what you will see. Even if this musical comedy is not the best movie you will ever see, it's a lovely way to enjoy a couple of hours. A good film doesn't need to make you burst into tears to be worth seeing. Finally, I will end up by saying that this is an enjoyable zany musical comedy, that everybody should see once in their lives.

lemdrducoin "Help !' released in 1965 and directed by Richard Lester, is the second movie of the Beatles. This movie was so fun ! I laughed from A to Z, The Beatles are good actors and they are very funny. There are many jokes in this film and I think The Beatles loved acting in this film. The soundtrack of this movie is excellent, The Beatles are the best rock band ever. But, the soundtrack doesn't correspond to the movie, some songs are about love but the film is funny, not romantic. Ringo Starr is the main character, all the movie focuses on him. Don't miss it ! This is unforgettable ! The script is simple but effective. 2 March 2015 , Nîmes
