Fun documentary, but I don't feel like I learned anything new about Paul or his post-Beatles life after watching. Granted, I've always been a huge McCartney fan, but it came off a little fluffy. The end of the story felt abrupt and left at what seems like an arbitrary point in his career. I get the feeling like maybe there's supposed to be a part 2 to this story, but there isn't.
So many documentaries nowadays, especially with popular musicians…
I really thought it was just alright. Definitely had a few good laughs but overall it felt lukewarm. In the past 18 years since this came out (wow) I've seen enough memes and heard enough semi-accurate quotes from this movie to give me a pretty good idea of what to expect. Unfortunately it also kind of deflated the excitement of seeing it for the first time. I had a similar experience in 2016 watching Mean Girls for the first time, except I enjoyed that a lot more. I think the script was better.
