David Bianculli NPR There's something about The Beatles, and the way they approached things, that makes their output seem fresh, no matter how many years have passed. The music, certainly, is that way -- but so is this documentary. Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Kenneth Womack Salon.com When it comes to documenting The Beatles’ life and times, the “Anthology” series absolutely sparkles. Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Stuart Heritage Guardian It is almost the exact same thing, only the images are sharper and the sound is better. If you’re coming to it fresh, however, it remains utterly authoritative. Rated: 4/5 Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex The iconic eight-episode series gets cleaned up, giving the series the cleanest audio and visuals you’d ever expect. Even with a new episode, The Beatles Anthology, the series flies by. Rated: 9/10 Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Jordan Bassett NME (New Musical Express) This entire rerelease is more than justified by the genuinely eye-opening final episode, which sees the lads work up ‘Free As A Bird’ and ‘Real Love’, the Lennon demos put out as Beatles tracks alongside the original documentary Rated: 4/5 Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies The Beatles Anthology remains an epic documentary series as it has been beautifully restored, remastered, and expanded for its 30th anniversary.
