Across the Universe (2007) - This movie isn't as good as The Beatles

How's it going everyone, welcome back to Hours of Movies! Today I'll be talking about Across the Universe and the numbers I like but also talk about how weak the script is. A fun movie but yet boring at the same time. Follow me on Twitter @Hoursofmovies and YouTube.

The songs of the Beatles provide the sonic framework for this musical tale of romance, war and peace. When young British worker Jude (Jim Sturgess) sets sail for the United States in search of his father, he ends up meeting carefree college student Max (Joe Anderson) and his lovely sister, Lucy (Evan Rachel Wood), along with a cast of eccentric characters. As Jude and Lucy fall for each other, their relationship is threatened by the social upheaval that accompanies the Vietnam War.
