J. R. Jones Chicago Reader Lester's brainy sight gags inside the radio station presage the pop-culture blast that he and the Fab Four would deliver two years later. Aug 3, 2015 Full Review Robert Murphy Time Out Some of the acts stand up better than others -- Gene Vincent singing 'Space Ship to Mars', Gary (US) Bonds, the witty, modish Temperance Seven -- but even the more boring trad jazz is filmed with such energy and inventiveness that it entertains. Aug 3, 2015 Full Review TV Guide This plot gives Lester an opportunity to creatively showcase a number of pop, rock, and trad jazz stars. Rated: 2.5/5 Aug 3, 2015 Full Review Dick Fiddy Radio Times The artful mix of music and zany comedy was an indicator of what was to come for Lester when he teamed up with the Beatles for A Hard Day's Night. Rated: 3/5 Aug 3, 2015 Full Review Sean Axmaker Seanax.com This is a prime example of a director making something out of nothing. Aug 3, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
