Paul McCartney Really is Dead: The Last Testament of George Harrison (2010)



This movie was borderline disgraceful.  If it was the intent of the creator to create Paul McCartney Really is Dead (PMRD) as a tongue and cheek indictment of conspiracy nuts then I have just marginally below begrudging respect for the endeavor.  But, it seems the PMRD was conceived with sincerity making its quality and content all the more awful.  However, if you are a Beatles fan and would like to indulge and alternate universe fantasy complete with plastic surgery fake Paul aka "Faul", an MI5 agent named Maxwell, a super fan name Rita, and over the top unnecessary references to "The Walrus", 10 out of 10.  Here is the best part of my experience watching this: I thought it was over at about 34 minutes and then was disappointed that the film had 70 minutes remaining.

Ratings

Paul McCartney/ "Faul" William Campbell: See it  

MI5 Agents:  See it.....wait I thought MI6 was the secret agent department....MI5 probably saw the movie in 1966 and realized it was ludicrous then.

Lizard People: Skip it

Ringo: Skip it  (They're never very kind to you.)

On a rating of Deerhoof to BioDome, I give Paul McCartney Really is Dead: The Last Testament of George Harrison 1.0 out of 5 stars.  (Mostly as pity for making me laugh.)
