This movie, though perhaps in the minds of the actors and directors, reminds me of a painter throwing a bunch of colors on a piece of paper and calling it a free form masterpiece. That is how this movie comes across:... Full review

I had read where this is a wild-and-crazy movie that was a lot of fun to watch and nostalgic for the period of the late '60, with decent songs thrown in. I agree with some of that but disagree about... Full review

This genius of a movie is about free will. Like the film Identity, Head is about fictional characters who become aware that they are fictional characters who don't really exist. They fight this every way they can: they walk off... Full review
The cinema of the 60s was as much as time of revolution as the politics and the music. Filmmakers were daring to make avant-garde films discussing taboo subjects only permitted before in exploitation films. Starting with both "Breathless" and underground... Full review

If your looking for a plot you can follow then forget this movie, but if you love the Monkees and you can appreciate the artform that this movie is then you will love it. To really "get" the film you need... Full review

This is the best psychadelic movie I have ever seen. I've seen it about 5 times now and it looks different every time. That is exactly what a great psychadelic movie should do. The year is 1968. The Monkee's popularity is... Full review

On the other hand, we wouldn't have this wonderful, very bizarre film floating around now, which I am very proud of. Teeny-boppers didn't understand it, and those who considered themselves remotely hip wouldn't have been caught dead going to a movie with the "Prefab Four," as the Monkees were mockingly called Tork doesn't necessarily think the film failed because the Monkees were passé. ...

Time Out
Rafelson's first feature, made when Monkee mania had all but died, Head proved too experimental for the diminishing weenybop audience which had lapped up the ingenious TV series. The typical zany humour is intercut with harsher political footage and satire on established genres of American cinema ... Full Review

As such, the talents of each member are uniquely showcased -- especially those of Peter Tork, whose contributions were previously too few and far between. Without question, both the movie and album are the most adventurous and in many ways most fulfilling undertaking to have been born of the Monkees' multimedia manufactured project. ... Full Review
