I've been a Brian Epstein fan for as long as I've been a Beatles fan so I was in part dreading this movie as much as I was looking forward to it . What I would say to anyone who is thinking of watching is give it a go. Not a perfect film by a long chalk, but they've managed to capture authenticity in abundance. JFL absolutely nails the lead role, he's genuinely a star in the making but the supporting roles seem really well thought out too. I had heard ( being a super fan) that there was trouble with the production, you'd never guess. I'd have liked a five hour tv series with the same production values as this film, that would have done Brian justice but as a film and a one off it's more than decent.

I know people who were there and I absolutely can't wait for them to see this on the big screen hopefully, although as I understand atm in the UK it's going straight to Amazon? That's a shame, I was lucky enough to see it on the big screen and maybe I'm biased but it's one of the most enjoyable films I've seen in months. The one thing no one can disagree with is Brian was loved and he should ge remembered as such. A bonafide legend. Go and watch this, download it or buy the dvd ( are they still a thing?) .

I'm a boxing fan and George Foreman was a great, I couldn't have cared less watching this tv movie.

I see more and more of these biopic films that in my opinion look like they're made by non film makers.

How you can make a story like this with zero emotion is easy to do if you aren't a great filmmaker. It's a tv movie, a to b to c film making.

It makes you appreciate the rate talent of great film making . Unfortunately I think thr ability judy make good films if being lost, I also think people's tastes are not as refined as they used to be, there's so many poor films people just forgive and forget. Films are regressing and TV at the highest level is at a peak. Such a shame. Edit, a lot off Ff films from Asia and a few other territories are bucking the trend.
