The Rutles are the funniest parody band ever conceived (Sorry Spinal Tap), and this mock-rockumentary is absolutely hilarious, especially if you are a Beatles fan because then you will get all of the tiny subtleties that are given to you in the Python-esque comedy about four lads. The only other Beatles parodies that are worth a darn is the "Picture" sketch from "Mr. Show" and the "B Sharps" from The Simpsons! If you are not a fan of the Beatles, you may not get a lot of the film, but there are still some good jokes that you might enjoy.
