The following Blu-rays and DVDs are being released on Tuesday, Sept. 26, unless otherwise noted: Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (BD) Details: 1978, Shout! Factory Rated: PG The lowdown: Attempting to link a songs from the classic Beatles’ album to a coherent story is ridiculous — and, unfortunately, so is this movie. The people who would truly enjoy the film are fans of either the Beatles or the Bee Gees, who acting abilities are better left undescribed. Despite the music and a cast that includes Peter Frampton as Bill Shears, George Burns, Steve Martin and Earth, Wind & Fire, the film is a great disappointment. Listening to the Beatles original album is a much more pleasant experience.
