Negative Positive
Title: Saw it in Seattle
Review: Unfortunately, this is a poor Ono-ism film. It is her re-writing of a fascinating period in John Lennon's life that really veres off the "highway of objectivity". Does Yoko forget that there really are a lot of us who were alive back then, and that we have watched the documentation examined publically, ad nauseum, over the last 30 years? Yes, going to the theater was another donation to the Lennon estate, and a mere drop in the bucket to what I've spent since the 60's for Beatle-related products, but I can't justify another $19.99 for the eventual DVD release. If it were more legitimate, minus the over-the-top "Thank you's" to Yoko from nearly every producer related to the film, I'd relish another addition to my unendingly increasing collection. But NOT for something that overtly excludes the people and situations from that time that Yoko choses to write off (Sir Paul, Julian, etc).
Is the review positive or negative?
