Help! - 1965 - 6/10

Ringo receives a priceless ruby ring from an adoring fan.
Ordered to return the ring, or become the next blood sacrifice to a Kali cult.
The Beatles second feature is a silly spoof of – I dunno what.
Cartoonish, goofy comedy, the lads even look bored (they were actually stoned).
The script bears much of the blame, as the sharp wit from the first film is missing.
Nevertheless, the musical numbers are outstanding! The last of the “Invasion” sound.
Film remains empty-headed fun, golden nostalgia for those with long memories.
