I thought that the movie was one of the biggest stinkers in the history of the planet… I hate Peter Frampton and Barry Gibb… They both come off as a bunch of pritty boys! Robin Gibb as playing the part of a wimp! He had to have Barry punch Alice Cooper in the face to save him from being strangled to death. the feast sequence had a drug influence feel to it… I would NEVER show this to my family… The only good thing about the soundtrack was Robin Gibb’s verson of Oh Darling… Let’s Not forget Get Back By Billy Preston… Otherwise the film is a complete waste of time and money… Bee Gees and Frampton RUINED the Beatles music… They ALL need acting lessons.. Poor George Burns He was also the only thing worth watching…I hope that it is never released to DVD…

This DVD doesnt work in any of my four DVD players. The movie skips and freezes. IU have cleaned the movie and my players and it is the disc. I will not recommend buying this movies again through amazon. I re-purchased the same item on bestbuy.com and it product was perfect and plays well.

Sorry I love the bee gees music. but I just didn’t dig this film man, this deserves the ultra bad razzie award. I remember see this at my friend’s house and feeling like I ate something horrible and my gut ached. The first half with George burns as he narrates the story was interesting until they get into the singing with peter frampton personally somebody at universal should’ve told Robert stigwood to come back when they had a better script formed or just told him to walk away from this turkey project. That goes for the Bee Gees and Frampton and Steve martin yes wild and crazy guy Steve playing Maxwell edision and speaking not singing Maxwell ’s silver hammer trying to be funny but it backfired it was horrible. I watched it again the other night I still had that feeling in gut not as bad but it was still there. The story was based on characters from the Beatles songs so it’s a little wacky; I like what the story was trying to tell about love, peace and harmony. But the screenwriter messed it up and turned this great idea that could’ve been a really good film and made into first-rate fodder. That embarrassed and ruined for a time, some careers of Frampton and Bee Gees were on the side for decade because of this awful film. I don’t think stigwood made another film because of it, its shame because of he was involved with so many good projects in the past, and this dud was his downfall. The only good sequences are a few which is a shame the lady that plays strawberry fields has got amazing voice and always fun to watch aerosmith playing villains.

There is nothing “campy” about this movie, it just STINKS.
Only Robert Stigwood could take the greatest, most important album of the 1960s and turn it into the worst movie of all time.
It was an embarassment to everyone involved. The Bee Gees refused to comment about SGT. PEPPER in interviews during the 1980’s and Billy Preston filed a lawsuit to have his name removed from the video box. It wasn’t just a bad movie, it killed careers.
When I saw it in the theater with several friends during it’s very short-lived general release, I was appalled at the movie’s amauterishness. There is no plot, the dialogue would insult the intelligence of a typical 4th grader, and the acting is non-existent. The music is performed in some kind of mind-numbing daze with orchestration straight out of H.R. Puffenstuff.
Towards the end of the film Peter Frampton stands on a roof top contemplating suicide. In the theater two or three people, myself included, began shouting “Jump! Jump!”
It was the only time I’ve ever been in a movie theater when the audience booed as the final credits rolled.
There are a few short seconds while Aerosmith performs “Come Together” that are kind of interesting. But all of the rest of the movie should have been torn to shreds, burned, and buried in a pit on the dark side of the moon. It is absolute unadulterated GARBAGE.
I rank it 1 star because that’s as low as the rating system goes. In reality it deserves negative 46 stars.
