Not my kind of musical

I know that the Beatles are loved by many and I do like some of their music but when I heard that Across The Universe was really about telling a story using only Beatles songs I wasn't really interested.
But my sister bought the DVD and some of my friends had really liked it, I said "meh" and watched it.
Now that I've seen it, I really don't know what's so special about it.
The story isn't that interesting even if it was showing the changes that were going on around the Vietnam war which I really disagree with but that isn't important in my review.
The music was nice but again I'm not a Beatles fan so I didn't really care.
The acting was nice and it's what saved the movie for getting a 2.
What really killed the movie for me was the mid part of the movie when all the "psychedelic" imagining and really ruined the rest of the movie.
I've seen other musicals and do like some of them and proudly say that I do like them even if it me look less manly but this musical is one that I don't like and don't plan on watching ever again.
