Yesterday is the latest film from director Danny Boyle (Sunshine, Slumdog Millionaire), alongside screenwriter Richard Curtis (Love Actually, Notting Hill).
It centres around a couple played by Lily James (Baby Driver) and Himesh Patel, and after the latter has an accident, he finds himself in an alternate world where The Beatles never existed and so all their songs are for the taking. Something’s bound to go round in the end, but this does rather feel like a one-joke movie and we’ve seen it in the trailer.
To make matters worse, it also features Kate McKinnon from the Ghostbusters reboot, and both James Corden and Ed Sheeran as themselves.
I’ll definitely pass on this.
Yesterday is released in the UK on June 28th.
