Patrick Goldstein Los Angeles Times 3d
From beginning to end, "Broad Street" is little more than an idle pop star's daydream, with McCartney playing the character we know all too much about -- himself. Go to Full Review

Paul McCartney's first movie in 14 years has no passion, no energy, no electricity. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

Paul Grein Billboard 03/24/2023
It's congenial but dumb, with an inane plot and gaudy visuals linking a series of musical numbers. Go to Full Review

2/4
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. Go to Full Review

@crckt 09/14/2024 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. See more Matt G 05/25/2023 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. See more Bruce S @bruster57 12/30/2022 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 See more 02/02/2022 What Campy fun! How did I miss this back when? See more 04/10/2020 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.
