A rock star (Paul McCartney) daydreams that he will be ruined unless he finds a missing master tape by midnight.

Yardena Arar

Associated Press

Give My Regards To Broad Street... has two main things going for it: The ever-charming McCartney presence and McCartney s music, old and new But even together, they are not enough to carry a full length feature.

Token attempt at street cred: if Paul doesn't get the tapes back, he'll be taken over by a sunglasses-wearing business shark.

Give My Regards to Broad Street is about as close as you can get to a nonmovie, and the parts that do try something are the worst.

Rated: 1/4

…leans into the task of delivering musically, and…doesn’t treat his own material in a piecemeal fashion…

Rated: 4/5

It's congenial but dumb, with an inane plot and gaudy visuals linking a series of musical numbers.

The acting here is weaker than the slender story, but intermingled with all the silliness are some fine performances of McCartney-Beatle standards as well as three new songs.

Rated: 2/4

Quintessential piece of cinema. Many have the opinion that this movie is, "A waste of time," or "Only good for the music." These individuals must have forgotten the scene where Linda has the funny hair on. Or the scenes revealing McCartney's license plate: PM. Or the one where Paul is playing music on the side of the street. Hearing them now, it must be a surprise to you that the film is scored so poorly, and you would be correct. I implore you to watch it for yourself if you still have a twinkle in your heart.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

If you're a McCartney fan, you know that his material has a homespun but accessible feeling. This is no different. Bad story with awesome musical bits mixed in. It's a gem of a McCartney fan service piece that I'll rewatch annually.

I liked it, interesting concept, great new and old music. I can watch it again and again I have the dvd and the cd Paul always gets judged on a higher level, not fair

There's not much good that can be said about this movie. Sir Paul and friends even redid some older songs very badly. "No More Lonely Nights" is an okay ballad. That's about it.
