Fodor's Review:

Meet the Beatles again, well sort of, at this instant smash that does turnaway business and shows Cirque du Soleil isn't losing any steam in Las Vegas. Surviving members of the Beatles or their families agreed to license the group's music to Cirque du Soleil for its fifth Las Vegas production. Even if you watch the show with your eyes closed, the remixed music by producer George Martin and his son Giles is revelatory in the state-of-the-art theater, often like hearing the songs for the first time. The visuals are more of a challenge. Cirque has a tougher time coming up with something novel here, thanks to audience familiarity with the company's brand of exotically costumed acrobatics. Sometimes one's attention is split between the aerial stunt work and the more theatrical action on the ground. On the balance, director Dominic Champagne does an admirable job of blending a metaphoric band biography with a Cirque-surreal Liverpool inhabited by famous characters based on the songs.
