Yesterday painted them as literal Gods, instead of just decent musicians at the right place at the right time.

That movie overglorified the Beatles beyond credibility, and it was genuinely painful to watch.
That said, I do think this movie missed out on a lot of potential, by not exploring what the actual significance of the Beatles to the world would have been: it never really asks what the world would be like had the Beatles never existed, which I think is a really interesting question, and instead develop a typical Hollywood plot.
