4.0 out of 5 stars Head, 25 Jun 2000
By A Customer
This film bombed on release. The Monkees phenomenon was all but over and they did not have the credibility to do a successful psychedelic freak out film. However seen in retrospect this film compares well to others in its genre. The movie is episodic and follows the four with out any clear development. There is no sense to be made but there is the underlying theme of their reaction to being manufactured pop idols and comments on the contradictions present in American society in the late sixties. The songs vary from the excellent to the mediocre but are probably better than you might expect with two excellent efforts, one of which is written by Peter Tork. The film contains numerous cameos including Jack Nicholson (co writer) Frank Zappa, Victor Mature, Denis Hopper, Sonny Liston. While the monkees play themselves the zany humour is absent and they present instead their alienatien and confusion with the humour being quite subtle. Because my children (aged 5 and 2 ) are fans I have seen this film upwards of twenty times in three weeks and I like it more every time.

5.0 out of 5 stars a collection of random scenes, 15 Jan 2002
this is a great insight into the monkees although you have to watch it about 12 times to understand it. It hs some very funny moments and a great soundtrack

5.0 out of 5 stars Monkee Magic!, 14 Mar 2000
By A Customer
Although conceived originally as one of the world's first "boybands", the common perception of The Monkees as a completely conventional and manufactured band is challenged by this completely bonkers movie.

Made to show the world some of their own ideas and as a reaction against the lack of credibility afforded to them by serious critics, this film gave me a completely different take on the band.

To say that this film is a little strange is a massive understatement. Getting Frank Zappa in to produce it has resulted in a truly bizarre and surreal adventure.

It's just nuts!
