What Customers Say About Across The Universe [Deluxe Edition]:

The Beatles are my favorite band of all times. The movie was wonderful and one of rear musicals that is not just singing and dancing. Some of the singers are even better than John, Paul, George or Ringo and the remakes of some songs better than originals. But not Bono though - Lennon's version of "I'm the Walrus" is still the best.

Not sure if all the songs were there that were on the movie or if they were the same exact artist that sung them. The first song I did not hear on the movie.

Across The Universe is a great movie and the soundtrack is terrific. Especially if you like The Beatles and their music.

This soundtrack is the best I have ever heard. The production is first rate. I almost feel I can see the scenes from the movie while it is playing.

I purchased Across the Universe after hearing the soundtrack only, had no idea of the story line, and had only seen the lead actor (Jim Sturgess) in another film (The Other Bolyn Girl). I set aside my expectations as I watched this film (how on earth can you make a film driven by Beatles' music without opening yourself up for comparisons). The actors in Across the Universe are all really talented and no doubt bound for bigger and better things. Of course, it was a treat to see Eddie Izzard and Bono, not to mention cameos by Joe Cocker as well. It was fun to see how the director and the screenwritesr wove the characters for the film from the lyrics of the songs themselves. Take this for what it is: a fun, rollercoaster of a movie that employs the best of the music that became the soundtrack to our own lives while not shying away from the pain and tragedies of the times in which it was all written.
