Across the universe.... like half of the theatre walked out. It truly was a piece of shit movie.

A guy in the row in front of me exasperatedly said ' I did the wrong damn drugs for this shit' as he walked out.

Okay fucking THANK YOU. I remember that movie being absolute shit and I would have walked out if I wasn't on a date with someone I was super into, but that was an absolutely terrible hot mess of a movie and it felt like all of my friends loved the movie and I'm like are you sure this is the same movie???!?!

Yeah, not a great movie. Would have worked better as a series of unrelated music videos.

Some people told me they thought it was amazing.

They were all the pretentious douche types who unironically wore berets to poetry slams back then. The movie was terrible and I love beetles music.

I can tell you that the "right drugs" are two hits of acid and misbelief that Paul McCartney had a hand in producing it. Because that's how I first saw it and though it was pure genius. Watched it sober a few days later and was like "what the hell is this?"
