Andy B For the benefit of Mr Epstein .The man who believed and therefore changed Everything! A lovingly crafted work. Capturing the essence of the time. Excellent performances throughout. Especially the perky fabs and his and George Martins chemistry, Cilla too of course. Modest budget adds to charm. A magical mystery trip! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review Annie D This is a captivating and beautifully crafted biopic that brings to life the lesser-known story of Brian Epstein, the visionary manager behind The Beatles. With an especially stunning performance by Jacob Fortune-Lloyd who plays Brian, Midas Man is a nostalgic yet fresh portrayal of the 1960s music scene. Whether you're a die-hard Beatles fan or simply love a musical biopic, this film is a must-watch that pays a fitting tribute to a true music industry pioneer. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review casa p Lovingly made film about Brian Epstein . Beautifully shot with a great lead performance, I quite like the direct to camera approach, lovely support performances as well, gives it a real north of England in the 60s feel. Of course the Beatles are included in some of there key historical moments, that’s a bit hit and miss but Brian’s story is fab. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review Jay G What could have been a very enjoyable film was ruined for me by the bizarre casting in 'height' of The Beatles!! John was way too short, and to have George towering over him, when in fact he was shorter than John, is just weird. It is such a pity as the rest of the cast were expertly cast! But I just couldn't stop looking at John's shortness throughout the movie. Very clumsy mistake to make. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review Orange S I watched this last night. I couldn’t help but feel this as a re-write of history which elevates Epstein to a place of genius Svengali who made the Beatles and created their entire success. The talent themselves are reduced to accidental passengers, instead of witty and sharp coming across as docile and obedient to whatever Brian tells them. It is very telling that what is glaringly missing from this “story “ is the actual music. Because that is the very thing that can’t be taken away and rewritten. The final culmination of this odd vanity project is an implied scene that Epstein even manufactured the famous Abbey Rd shoot, leading the band on. Really quite awful in its hagiographical manipulation. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review Midas M The trailer and hype caught my eye on this one and very glad to say it was worth every minute of watching the movie. Excellent performance from Jacob as Brian and.many other colourful, fun characters throughout made the movie insightful but fun. A story well told of his troubled personal life, but most importantly highlights and demonstrates how he helped shape pop culture for many generetions. His eye for talent was second to none and this movie acts a reminder of his charmever, charisma and drive Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
