Beatles Anthology Reviews:

"...This Fab Four collection is a permanently valuable bookshelf reference trove and a rapturous docu-musical entertainment. It's also the video event of the year..." -- Mike Clark, USA Today

"...The aptly named ANTHOLOGY remains the definitive Beatleography....The doc puts all its stock in the insights from the only men who really knew what it meant to be a Beatle..." -- Michael Sauter, Entertainment Weekly

"[A]s candid as you'll get..." -- Mojo Staff, Mojo

5 stars I absolutely liked it!
No one could tell the Beatles story better than The Beatles themselves. This series told this extraordinary part in the sixties with just all we wanted to know about it. Not more, no less. And as a Beatles fan, it was very exciting to see Paul, Ringo and the late George jamming together again after so many years. If you haven't seen this, you don't know what you're missing.
