1. Imagine: John Lennon (Deluxe Edition) (1988)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Back when it hit screens in 1988, Imagine – John Lennon offered fans a good look at rare material. 17 years later, it no longer seems nearly as interesting or intriguing. Instead, it now stands as a perfunctory overview of Lennon’s life but doesn’t have much to make it special. Starring John Lennon. Warner, $19.98, 12/6/2005.

2. Classic Albums: John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band (2008)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: As a longtime Beatle fan, I looked forward to Classic Albums: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. While the show entertains and offers a decent overview, it lacks the insight and depth I expect from the “Classic Albums” series ... POB is worth a look, but fans shouldn’t expect one of the series’ best efforts. Starring John Lennon, Yoko Ono. Eagle Vision USA, $

3. John Lennon: Imagine/Gimme Some Truth (1971)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Of the two programs on this John Lennon release, Gimme Some Truth easily fares best, as it provides a fascinating documentary look at Lennon’s life and work. Imagine provides more than an hour of meandering videos, few of which entertain. Starring John Lennon, Yoko Ono. Eagle Rock, $19.98, 10/5/2018.

4. Lennon Legend: The Very Best Of John Lennon (2003)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Though not without its moments, I must regard Lennon Legend as a disappointment. Occasional gems appear, but mostly we just get one fairly monotonous video montage after another. Starring John Lennon. EMI, $24.98, 11/18/2003.

5. The Killing Of John Lennon (2006)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: An awkward, rambling look at a madman, The Killing of John Lennon does little more than bore us with its pretensions. The movie lacks real insight and seems exploitative too much of the time ... I can’t recommend this tedious, dull film. Starring Jonas Ball, Krishna Fairchild. IFC, $19.95, 8/5/2008.

6. John Lennon: Gimme Some Truth: The Making of John Lennon's Imagine Album (1971)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: ...a fantastic look at one of the all-time greats...

7. The Tomorrow Show With Tom Snyder: John, Paul, Tom & Ringo (1975-1981)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: Will Beatles fans learn a lot from the three programs in John, Paul, Tom and Ringo: The Tomorrow Show with Tom Snyder? No, as the chats offer varying levels of interesting material but never stand out as particularly memorable. Nonetheless, Beatles obsessives will clearly enjoy them for their archival value ... I don’t know how often I’ll want to revisit

8. The Beatles: Magical Mystery Tour [Blu-Ray] (1967)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: After 45 years of derision, I’d love to claim that Magical Mystery Tour deserves a positive appraisal. Alas, it doesn’t; if anything, I suspect the years have made this self-indulgent mess look even worse. The Blu-ray provides inconsistent but generally positive picture along with strong audio and a reasonably interesting batch of bonus materials. Beatle

9. John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band: Sweet Toronto (1988)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: While useful for archival reasons, the concert performance itself simply seems too sloppy and meandering to merit any sort of classic status.

10. Backbeat [Blu-Ray] (1993)

Reviewed by Colin Jacobson: A major disappointment, Backbeat fails to bring the story of the early Beatles to life. It features simplistic characters and a focus on cheap emotion that take it into the category of bland melodrama. Starring Stephen Dorff, Ian Hart. Shout, $22.97, 2/19/2019.
