I Wanna Hold Your Hand
In 1964, a group of New Jersey teenagers make it their mission to travel to New York City in order to catch the Beatles' very first performance on 'The Ed Sullivan Show.' Along the way, they learn new things about friendship and growing up.

An interesting social document about a watershed media event as well as a thoroughly entertaining movie.

There are a few good moments (particularly for people who know the show's host and enjoy the spoof), but it seems an over heavy trip to the uninitiated.

Zemeckis has better in him...but this is a nice entree
November 08, 2004
The film that started Zemeckis on his rise to fame. Coo coo kachoo.
December 03, 2016
A film about the joy of being young and a little bit crazy, ruled by the organizing principle of all Zemeckis and Gale's early work: barely controlled chaos.

Delightful sleeper pic about obsessed Beatles fans

The maiden voyage in Zemeckis' sarcastic time machine
February 09, 2006
In the best scenes, Zemeckis suggests how the Beatles' blend of irreverence, romance and innocence encouraged a kind of youthful rebellion that was almost completely sanctioned.

Zany Beatles tale which has a lot of truth to it.

If there's a tray full of food within camera range, rest assured that somebody will knock it over. If a stuck-in-the-elevator-on-the-eve-of-an-important-event routine presents itself, rest assured that its staging will be tried and true.

An engaging, slapstick look at the effect the Beatles had on the US when they crossed the Atlantic.
June 01, 2011
I Wanna Hold Your Hand re-creates precisely the excitement the Beatles let loose 14 years ago; it transports the audience back to the eye of a phenomenal social hurricane.
