While it may not be as ambitious as it could’ve been, Danny Boyle’s simple but irresistible and winning ‘what-if’ film Yesterday will charm your socks off eight days a week. Read more

Yesterday has a uniquely charming premise which it capitalises on rather well - at least initially.

Instead it’s mostly just a conventional romance set to Beatles music. The intriguing premise seems almost incidental. Read more

Yesterday is a fluffy and ultimately half-baked 'What if?' fantasy that partially gets by on its zestful storytelling and endearing performances. Read more

This should’ve been some sort of bombastic musical sensation. Instead, it’s a bland comedy that falters more then it soars. Read more

Yesterday is een van de beste muzikale romkoms van het jaar, waarbij alles op de kapstok eigenlijk een stuk interessanter is dan de kapstok zelf. De film biedt namelijk veel meer dan een romkom met een erg fijne soundtrack, iets wat vooral te danken is aan enkele interessante gewetensvragen. Daarbij is de film overgoten met een fijne komediesaus, waarbij zelfs droogkloot Ed Sheeran nog komisch uit de hoek weet te komen. Read more
