AUDIENCE SCORE

Rating: 3/4 -- Robert Zemeckis' "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" was a box office bomb, despite being a perfectly delightful and effervescent comedy that doesn't dwell on Beatlemania as much as surf on it for laughs. Full Review
Capital Times (Madison, WI)

A pretty okay nostalgia musical comedy for early Robert Zemeckis with some great Beatles music, and some solid slapstick. Full Review
Cinema Crazed

In the best scenes, Zemeckis suggests how the Beatles' blend of irreverence, romance and innocence encouraged a kind of youthful rebellion that was almost completely sanctioned. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- It's a celebration of this once in a lifetime moment, the emergence of a pop culture phenomenon as these characters are on the verge of exiting adolescence and entering adulthood into a world that will be come increasingly fractured and cynical. Full Review

If you're a fan of 1970s cinema like me, Criterion's Blu-ray release of I Wanna Hold Your Hand is one that you'll wanna hang on to. Full Review

...Quite successful....The whole film sparkles with a boisterous lunacy...

"I Wanna Hold Your Hand" is a pellmell slapstick impression of what some of those fans went through to order to get near their idols. Full Review

Product Description:

A comedy chronicling 24 hours in the lives of six teenagers from Maplewood, New Jersey, who descend on Manhattan the day The Beatles premiered on the "Ed Sullivan Show," February 8, 1964. Each has a personal agenda: Grace Corrigan is looking for her big break as a photographer; Rosie Petrofsky is the quintessential Beatles fan, and Janice Goldman and Tony Smerko, would do anything to see the performance end in disaster.
